Capo at 4 INTRO: Em Am (twice)
|
|
Em Am Em Am
|
Weeping statues Elvis sightings Visitations man struck by lightning
|
Em Am Em Am
|
Everyday someone gets a sign It rips apart the fabric of their daily lives
|
Am C D C
|
Is It fear of flying that Keeps us rooted to the ground
|
Am C D
|
Everyone is trying to stay trapped and gagged and bound
|
|
The blind girl saw it the deaf man heard it
|
The cripple stood up and walked towards it
|
The handless man wrote it down to report it
|
The moron changed the words around to distort it
|
Ah his hand was steady and His mind was clear to think
|
But it came out in black and white Written In invisible ink (INTRO and SOLO)
|
|
Weeping statues Elvis sightings Stained glass window man struck by lightning
|
Every minute someone loses control And sees things how they really are
|
And not how they're told But statues only weep for some
|
And Elvis just shows up when he's hungry
|
Lightning strikes at everyone But only hits the very lucky
|
