Bound so close, so painful to watch

Its wet and I can't get a draw

It's weird out here on the highway at 4 a.m.

There's finally a lull that wakes us up

The path gets worn by the third tree line

Oh, what a beautiful stand

I get a bucket and a lie all ready for a guy

Who plows the land

And refreshments for imaginary friends

That are so clear and safe back here

Undisguised, wide open

Down the lining of the lane

I've already got an indication

The information's not the same

The paper lies, I cover my eyes

I've lost my nerve for planning

I find it hard to think sometimes

To get excited about an excitable thing

Is harder than you'd think

And the path gets worn by the third tree line

Oh, what a beautiful stand

I get a bucket and a lie all ready for a guy

That I don't think will understand

Refreshments for imaginary friends

That are so clear and safe back here

Undisguised, wide open

Down the lining of the lane

While I've already got an indication

The information is not the same

I could've gone around the corner

On my bike to rent a movie, but I didn't

I could've gone down to the water

When I felt the rumble inside

Cement ship goes by

Inside...

Notes: Most of this song is just the Bm riff, with a G barre chord

thrown in the verse now and then, just strummed once and held. The

chorus uses normal (open) chords, and all the fancy stuff is done

by the lead guitar.
