[Verse 1]
Em       A         G       D
   On a walk in a fragile state
Em        A            G        G    D
   Weird angles coming over the wire
Em       A          G        D
   Back home we got girls in braids
           G         D                C                      C  D
   They're on roller skates, and they roll any way they like

Em          A          G           D
   From my town I can always look down
Em              A           G           G       D
   Down from my nose at the fish in the barrels
Em             A        G     D
   But in the wilds of human life
            G        D          C                   C  D  Em
   There are pretty knives, an array of gentle eyes


[Chorus 1]
E       A     C         A
   So tonight, dance and cry
C            G    G  D  Em
   The dead alive


[Verse 2]
Em     A         G       D
   Monuments to awful events
Em         A        G          G       D
   I float by in a daze on the freeway
Em        A           G          A
   He can whine about different times
      G        D             C                 C  D
   But me, I'm fine with the mirrors far away

Em         A             G          D
   For the mills in the valleys to function
Em            A           G              G    D
   Rain gonna fall on the hills where we hike
Em          A             G           D
   Wash the blood and the guts to the ocean
G           D           C                  C  D  Em
   Feed the pike making everything alright


[Chorus 2]
E       A     C         A
   So tonight, dance and cry
C            G    G  D  Em
   The dead alive


[Musical Interlude]

[Chorus 3]
G       A     C         A
   So tonight, dance and cry
C            G    G  D  Em
   The dead alive


[Outro]

Em    A             G          D
                      Figments
Em    A             G          D
Em    A             G          D
   Figments of imagination (figments of imagination)
Em    A             G          D
Em    A             G          D

   Figments of imagination
Em    A             G          D
   Figments of imagination
Em    A             G          D
