Intermission

D                                           G
   When you're standing on the side of a hill
A                                       B
Feeling like your day may be done
F#
Here it comes
G#
The strawberry smog
A#                        A
Chasing away the sun
D                                 G
Don't let those precious moments fool you
A                                 B
Happiness is getting you down
F#                            G#
A rainbow never smiles or blinks
A#                                A
It's just a candy-colored frown


  Dm                         A
You were going on at half-past seven
  Dm                                 A
Now it's going on a quarter 'til nine
Gm                          Dm
All the angels want to know
Gm                                 A
Are you lost or treading water?
  Dm                         A
And you're going on your fifteenth bender
  Dm                         A
But you've only got a matter of time
Gm                          Dm
Yes we've all got seeds to sow
Gm                           A
Not everyone's got lambs to slaughter

Bm                  G
When the night wind starts to turn
Bm                G
Into the ocean breeze
Bm                     G
And the dew drops sting and burn
Bm                   G
Like angry honey bees
D                        G                 A                             Bm
That is when you hear the song falling from the sky
G                    D
Happy yesterday to all
A                    D
We were born to die

D                                           G
Sometimes you're filled with the notion
A                              B
The afterlife's a moment away
F#                     G#
You want to tell someone the way that you feel
A#                                        A
But then you ain't got nothing to say
D                                           G
You fight for freedom from devotion
A                                       B
A battle that will always begin
F#                                      G#
With somebody giving you a piece of advice;
A#                                        A
By the way you're living in sin


  Dm                         A
Now there's never gonna be an intermission
  Dm                         A
But there'll always be a closing night
Gm                          Dm
Never entertain those visions
Gm                                A
Lest you may have packed your baggage
  Dm                         A
First impressions are cheap auditions
  Dm                         A
Situations are long goodbyes
Gm                          Dm
Truth so often to living dormant
Gm                                A
Good luck walks and bullshit flies

Bm                         G
When the headlights guide your way
Bm                       G
You know the place is right
Bm                    G
When the treetops sing and sway
Bm                     G
Don't go to sleep tonight

D                        G                 A                             Bm
That is when you see the sign Luminous and high:
G                                  D
Tomorrow's not what it used to be
G                                  A
We were born to die
G                                  D
Happy yesterday to all
G                                  A
We were born to die
