Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Silver needles Golden eagles

Frightened faces Basket cases

Jags and riches Queens and witches

Electric mantras And tight-fitting dreams

Never been so high

Never been so low

Never been so high

Gilded flowers Long-lost hours

Morning programs With fake suntans

Meet a maniac in the cul-de-sac

Otherwise it's this ennui

Chromium platin'

All this waiting brings me down

Suffocatin'

All those colors bring me around

Never been so high

Never been so low

Never been so high

Broken records Faded labels

Songs to sing to When you were young

A tattooed pierced arm Fresh and perfumed

Switch your prison Fly away

Chromium platin'

All this waiting brings me down

Suffocatin'

All those colors bring me around

All those colors bring me down

All those colors bring me round

And jewels on your fingers

Tears in your dresses

Fabulous mansions And damp little rooms

This one will shrink me

This one will grow me

Cue me to sleep And reality looms

Chromium platin'

All this waiting brings me down

Suffocatin'

All those colors bring me around
