The Hallows

Intro
A, A#, D

Dm         Gm  G     F          Dm
As I lay me down to fall asleep

Dm         Gm       F          Dm
With my demons dying and my pilot light weak
Dm         Gm  G     F                                        Dm
I curse the last six months I been hiding behind a mustache, yeah

F                           Gm                          Cm        slide to Dm
And to those last ten years I been howling a paper moon: fuck you

Dm                                 A#
This goes out to all my underdone, under-tongue, lung long frontmen
(This is what the ghost of someone's dad says)
A#                                   G
And all us earth growths, some planted
Dm
And some pulled
(Shut up and put your money where your mouth is)

Dm         Gm  G     F          Dm
Shine a flashlight in a hat box and spin
Dm         Gm       F          Dm
An empty oyster shell and celebrate the hollows


Dm                                 A#
This goes out to dirty dancing, cursing, backmasking,
A#                                   G
backslidden pastor's kids
(From behind bars it's not so hard to see he's risen)
Dm
And all us earth growths, some planted
And some pulled
(But nobody finds God and then goes to prison)


Gm                     F              Dm      Gm
In Berlin I saw two men fuck in a dark corner of a basketball court
Dm                         Gm                    Dm
Just the slight jingle of pocket change pulsing
Gm                     F
In the tourist part I lost fifty Euros
Dm                               Gm
To the guy with the walnut shells and the marbles
Dm                              Gm
It really pissed me off, so oh
Dm                             Gm
I thought I'd go back to get my money but all my homies warned me
Dm                              Gm
Oh no, those gypsies probably got knives


Dm                                 A#
This goes out to all my under brewed, double-duped, two times true fools
(Stuck faking a phone call or texting for company)
A#                                   G
And all us earth grows, I'm planted

Dm
That's some pull
(Like a married uncle at a family function)

Dm                             Gm
I got them shaky gums and a couple of loose tooths
C           F
Now tell me, what should I do, my god
Dm        Gm                    C             F
The clock's always stuck telling 11:11, or 3:32
