[Intro]
G
 
[Verse 1]
G                  Bm          C                Am
Seventeen, working overtime the acting part of a slow decline
      Em                        C
I was caught in a trance like a viper advancin'
D
Totally over it, down on the corner
      G                      Bm           C                  Am
I had wrote my name on a picket sign I've had my knife since '99
              Em                       C
And I've been driving at night with my head in the lights
        D
And I'm already gone by the time I got back
 
[Verse 2]
            G            Bm                 C                  Am
To the other side of the big dumb world I found my place my style unfurled
       Em                  C
like a carrier pigeon, the only religion
       D
Got me cutting it back to the part on my heart
          G                    Bm                 C                 Am
Where the roses roam and the crew is game, a photograph of an empty frame
      Em                        C
I was caught in a moment with a worthy opponent
        D                                                 G
And I'm thumbing my nose at the rose on a thorn of authority
Bm      C     Am   Em  C   D
     Ah yeah
 
[Verse 3]
G                   Bm            C                     Am
Over and over and over again I'll know it's time by the time it ends
      Em                             C
I was shot in the shadow but I'm bleeding for real
     D
When somebody loves you they water the wheel
    G                     Bm                 C               Am
She saved my ass at the break of dawn, my files in pieces, my money's gone
      Em                           C
I was under persuasion, a syndicated occasion
       D
on the opening night of the fight for the likes
 
[Verse 4]
       G            Bm                C                  Am
Of the allegorical rainbow bright believe you me it's an oversight
          Em                      C
I've been roaming with omens in a paper canoe
          D
And I can tell it's a lie by the size of your shoes
            G           Bm             C                   Am
Yeah it's only a moment every time the gloves go up but the stars align
        Em                    C
You can marry a mission under scary conditions
        D                                                   G
but I'm blowing my horn on the side of the thorn of authority
Bm      C     Am   Em  C   D
     Ah yeah
 
[Outro]
D                                                       G
I'm blowing my horn on the side of the thorn of authority
Bm      C     Am   Em  C   D
     Ah yeah
G
     Ah yeah

And oh no little fuel to the fire
         D          Am                               Bm

[Chorus]
       D             E/D                          Em          A
To the lost ones, to those without a home, to the fearless arm in arm
A
Sing it
G        D
     Why suffer in vain?
G             D
     When our fates are the same
G                                E             A           D
Oh, you showed me how to see the ocean, the ocean from the waves
 
[Verse 3]
D                          G                                                 D
  Well I’m beginning to see stars, she pulled me back out through the forest
         Am                           Bm
I was an idiot alone, afraid of any and every sound
       Gm                           D
Yeah but I’m beginning to feel alright
    E/D

           C
We’ve been walking on coals
       Bm                              Bb
Walking home in the endless sunrise in yesterday's clothes
    G                             A                       D
You know I love a mystery, and tomorrow never knows oh no

  And you picked me up,  you spun me around

And now I'm beginning to think
D                    A   Bm                  D
  That if this ain't love   when love ain't real
    E             D              C#m  E Eb
And if this ain't right, right is wrong

      She's an open book filled with fine white lies
 
[Verse 1]
E                          C#m
Her cards, her crystal ball, she can see for miles and miles and days and days
F#
  And though she says she can't tell your future
A
  Well I know it's gonna happen that way
          E
Anyway she ignores the rain outside her window
C#m
she, she stands to turn off the lights
   F#
But I, well I can still see her fingers
A                                        E
  They're covered in a dust of fine white lies
 
[Chorus]
E   A                                           E
      She's an open book filled with fine white lies
E   A                                           E
      She's an open book filled with fine white lies
 
[Verse 2]
E
She says she has a switch to kill the pain
C#m
   Well I believe it but I don't say why, I can't explain
F#
  She turns it on and on and off yeah and she walks away
       A
She say if you could see what I see you're doing great
E
Well I can't see at all reflecting in her eyes the crystal ball
C#m
   Well she remakes the chaos, she makes it small
F#
  But there are those so intolerably dull
     A
That all they see is fist and fangs, fist and fangs,
            E
and nothing more oh she gives them all a name
C#m
  Tells them they're ok, trash from a crescent
        F#
Painted strong and bright comes to mind she saves it all she's the angel of time
        A
There's nobody's stranger she'll open you up if you're open ages aboves
E       C#m
Ahh oh yeah she's the angel of answers, she's the angel of grace
                                     F#
She'll tell you what you need to hear she's the angel of voices
                          A                                            E
But most of all yeah but most of all she's the angel of the fine white lie
 
[Outro]
E   A                                           E
      She's an open book filled with fine white lies
E   A                                           E
      She's an open book filled with fine white lies

        E        B              E            A               B
Kicking into the rim 'til it's true, saving all my time for later
           E          F#m                            B
This white dove on my shoulder, I caught him under a bridge
           E          F#m                 B
Kicking trash getting older what a way to live
 
[Verse 2]
   E             B          E           A               B
My attackers are cracking a joke, I was born out in the stable
E           B           E               A       B
Filling the blanks with smoke and doing anybody favors
           E          F#m                              B
This white dove on my shoulder, I caught him under the bridge
           E          F#m                  B
Kicking trash getting older, what a way to live
F#m           B

F#m           B
what a way to live
F#m           B

        E             B           E            A                B
And the last time I passed by Louise she was calling out for someone

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
D
If you can't help yourself I know someone can
                      G     D
Call on her, she's the handyman
D
She walks through these corridors, toolbox in hand
Bm            Em          D
She's got the keys to the kingdom
 
[Verse 2]
D
They forgot about her a long time ago
D                                          G     D
But this place would be wrecked without the handyman
D
If a door's rusted shut or too big for the jamb
Bm            Em       D
She knows the way that it opens
 
[Verse 3]
D
If your brain is on fire there's a watering can
                                       G     D
She knows where it is 'cause she's your handyman
D
If you can't count your blessings she can do that too
        Bm          Em               D
Just put everything down and she will do it for you
        Bm          Em               D
Just put everything down and she will do it for you

[Verse 4]

If someone you love's become a different man
D                                   G     D
She knows how to fix him, she's your handyman
D
Any start to this kingdom is at her command
Bm            Em            D
She knows the one it goes into
 
[Verse 5]
D
If your child is restless, she won't sit or stand
D                               G     D
She knows what it is, she's your handyman
D
She's got a whole bag of tricks, you may know one or two
        Bm          Em               D
Just put everything down and she will do them for you
 
[Verse 6]
D
If you're looking at something that you don't understand
                                G      D
She knows what it is, she's your handyman
D
It's something we both know but don't know its plan
Bm       Em      D
A door that hasn't been opened
    Bm            Em          D
But she's got the keys to the kingdom

You’ve got me making up my mind
