Hợp âm A Scale, a Mirror, and Those Indifferent Clocks

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]Here is a [C]scale, weigh it out
And you will find, easily
More than [Em]sufficient doubt
That these col[E]ors [Em]you see

[Verse 2]
Were [Am]picked in advance
By some careful hand
With an [F]ab solute concept of [G]beauty
They [C]are smeared and these blurs

[Verse 3]
Come [C]in random order
And [Em]color the eyes of your former lovers
Hers were [Am]green like July
Except when she cried

[Verse 4]
They were [F]red[G]
Now I [C]know a disease
That these doctors can't treat
You con[Em]tract on the day

[Verse 5]
You [Em]accept all you see
Is a [Am]mirror and a mirror is all it can be
A re[F]flection of something [G]we're missing
And [C]language just happened

[Verse 6]
[C]It was never planned
And [Em]it's inadequate to describe [E]where I [Em]am
In [Am]the room of my house

[Verse 7]
Where the [Am]light has never been
[F]Waiting for this day to [G]end
And these [F]clocks keep unwinding

[Verse 8]
And com[G]pletely ignore
[Em]Everything that [Am]we hate or ad[G]ore
Once the [F]page of a calendar
is [G]turned it's no more
So [Em]tell me, then, what was [Am]it for?[G]
Oh, [F]tell me, [G]what was it for?
