Even The Good Wood Gone Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]And when I woke up,
I woke up stiff and gray already
Posed in sleep by something
half my cells made stone
Wrists and ankles crossed
at a vulnerable angle

[Verse 2]
And when I woke up, well I woke up alone
[D]As the [F#m]only f[D]ool[Bm] or pharaoh pres[D]ent
[G]In [Gsus2]a shoddy [G]sch[D]ool[F#m][D][Em]
museum col[D]lection

[Verse 3]
[D]Looted of gold, if there ever was some
And even the good wood gone
Remaining fingers [Bm]curled around
[D]the [G]memory of [D]Ra
Left not [Bm]even with my
[G]death mask [D]on
[Asus4]Heart and other org[Bm]ans
missing [G]for so [D]long
[Asus4]Features faded [Bm]and dated in [G]estima[D]tion
And [A]even [Asus4]the good
[Bm]wood gone
[G]

[Verse 4]
[D]
Drunk off a leak in the ceiling

[Verse 5]
Some mantra stuck on my lips in vain
[G]No [Asus4]flash pho[D]tography[G]
[Bm]No flash photography
[E]No [G]flash photog[Em]raphy[Bm][G]
And [D]when I'm really buried I'll
be buried in Cleveland
With a new pair of skis and someone's
old set of keys to their car
And bottom floor apartment door
and health club locker
Throw the [A]scent of [D]my true [Bm]purpose from [G]god and
[Gsus2]grave rob[D]bers

[Interlude 1]
[D][F#m][Bm][D][G][D][F#m][Em][D]

[Verse 6]
My true [D]purpose which I will have taken
the care to have kept hidden

[Interlude 2]
Even from myself my whole life
[G]

[Verse 7]
[D]No flash photography
[G]No [Bm]flash photo[B]graphy
[E]No [G]flash photography

[Interlude 3]
[G][Em][Bm][G]

[Verse 8]
[Gsus2]Already g[D]ray and rehearsing my mantra
Left hand gripping hockey
stick or cattle prod
My final futile act of double deception
Aloof [Asus4]and tinge[D]d with
[Bm]truth as [D]the [G]best lies [D]are
[A]As [D]I've [A]alw[Bm]ays shot poo[G]l south paw[D]
[A]And many [Bm]of you who kn[G]ew me saw
[D]
