The Writer (Fischer Z)

Album: Red Skies Over Paradise

[Dm] [C] [G] [A]
[Dm]The other [C]side of the [G]room[A]
[Dm]an empty [C]bottle lies [G]broken[A]
[Dm]Purple [C]faces are [G]sure,[A]
[Dm]of snow white [C]sheets to [G]soak in[A]

His clothes are spread around,
they smell of perspiration
A half eaten meal
attracts the flies attention

[A]Do I Do I Do I Do I Hear the man's cries
Do I Do I Do I Do I Look in his eyes
Do I Do I Do I Do I Care if he dies
Do I Do I Do I Do I Do I?

[Dm]Take a paper [C]towel and place it [G]over his [A]head
[Dm]Phone up re[C]ception and rep[G]ort him as [A]dead
[Dm]Open up the [C]window and exp[G]ose him to [A]light
[Dm]Push it all [C]away from me ... [A]No that can't be [Dm]right ..[C].[G]
[A]Ri High [Dm]hight ..[C].[G][A]

A continental breeze
has set the blinds in motion
Brings just a hint of change
from the Atlantic Ocean

The ancient church bell rings.
Defies the march of progress
The senoritas said
you were too young to notice

Do I Do I Do I Do I ...

Take a paper towel...
