**Intro**

/[b] 2x's

**Verse 1**

/[b]

No one knows where the ladder goes

/[b]

You're gonna lose what you love the most

You're not alone in anything

You're not unique and dying

/[b]

Feel estranged every now and then

/[b]

Fall asleep reading science-fiction

I wanna fly in your silver ship

Let Jesus hang and Buddha sit

**Chorus 1**

It's on now

The days are long now

The ups and the sundowns

In a twisting mind

If I've got to go first

I'll do it on my terms

I'm tired of traders

Always changing sides

They were friends of mine...

**Break**

/[b] 2x's

**Verse 2**

/[b]

Don't hang around once the promise breaks

/[b]

You'll be there when the next one's made

Kiss the feet of a charlatan

Some imagined freedom

/[b]

All the rest is predictable

/[b]

You can say you're the first to know

Bought a mantra to concentrate

Car alarm or hissing snake.

**Chorus 2**

I know now

How it's gonna turn out

We gotta calm down

Or I'll lose my place

Gotta get to the center

Gotta get to the concert

Run off with a dancer

Gonna celebrate

**Bridge**

Welcome the new age

Covered in warrior paint

Lights from the jungle to the sky

See now a star's born

Looks just like a blood orange

Don't it just make ya wanna cry?

Precious friend of mine...

**Break**

/[b] 2x's

**Verse 3**

/[b]

Well, I know when it's finally done

/[b]

This whole life's a hallucination

You're not alone in anything

You're not alone and trying to be.
