My Favourite Chords lyrics

Artist Weakerthans, The
Album(s) Left & Leaving

Lyrics

They're tearing up streets again
They're building a new hotel
The mayor's out killing kids to keep taxes down
And me and my anger sit folding a paper bird
Letting the curtains turn to beating wind
Wish I had a socket-set to dismantle this morning
And just one pair of clean socks
And a photo of you
When you get off work tonight
Meet me at the construction site
And we'll write some notes to tape to the heavy machines
Like "we hope they treat you well. hope you don't work too hard
We hope you get to be happy sometimes."
Bring your swiss-army knife, and a bottle of something
And I'll bring some spraypaint and a new deck of cards
Hey I found the safest place to keep all our tenderness
Keep all those bad ideas. keep all our hope
It's here in the smallest bones, the feet and the inner-ear
It's such an enormous thing to walk and to listen
I'd like to fall asleep to the beat of you breathing
In a room near a truckstop on a highway somewhere
You are a radio. you are an open door
I am a faulty string of blue christmas lights
You swim through frequencies
You let that stranger in, as I'm blinking off and on and off again
We've got a lot of time
Or maybe we don't, but I'd like to think so, so let me pretend
These are my favourite chords
I know you like them too
When I get a new guitar, you can have this one and sing me a lullaby
Sing me the alphabet
Sing me a story I haven't heard yet
