Tom: E
E A
We are like pendulums
E A
Our arms swinging at our sides
E A
And I am a good little clock
E A
Walking along power lines
[Interlude]
E - A (x2)
[Verse 1]
E A
I'm thinking like a swinging door
E A
I'm hinging on these changing thoughts
E A
Between the pull up to the shore
E A
And the push off
[Interlude]
E - A (x2)
[Bridge]
B A
In the lines of footprints in the snow
B A
All along the edges of the road
B A
And I haven't even walked my block
B A
Since I moved out here years ago
[Interlude]
E - A (x4)
[Verse 2]
E A
The secret lives of twist ties
E A
The hidden story
E A
In one line
E A
[Bridge]
B A
In the lines of footprints in the snow
B A
All along the edges of the road
B A
And I haven't even walked my block
B A A
Since I moved out here years ago
[Chorus]
E
And we are like pendulums
E A
Our arms swinging at our sides
E A
And I am a good little clock
E A
I'm ticking off the time
[Interlude]
E - A (x4)
[Verse 3]
E A
The distant lights are twinkling
E A
It means there is a wind
E A
That blows the trees against themselves
E A
And hard into this house I'm sleeping in
[Outro]
E A
E A
I'm sleeping in
E A
E A
A A A E
