Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Gilbert works alone, late into the night

Dangling from a freeway overpass

He’s welding rebar and sculpting concrete

They’re paving in the gap way out west

Off in the distance the sleeping city shines

Raises his mask to take a look

Slips from the perch still holding onto his torch

I see him falling just like a burning star

Out of control mmmmmm mmmmmm

And heading way of course mmmmmmm mmmmmm

Waking up confused in a bed of thorn

And a world turn upside down

No questionasked no party ever surched

Like a blip Gilbert slips into the void

A rustle nearby and vision appears

Made from saquaro boots and rib

She takes ahold of his prickly hand

And together they stand

Walk on through the ruins of a world

That lost control...

The most beautiful song
