[Verse 1]
[D]Anybody got a like a couch I can sleep on when I come
down here ?
That'd be cool. Sign a little list, sign up say 'I have couch.'... 'I
am nineteen.'
(laughing) Oh, that was dirty.
No, don't put your age on there. I only
[G]stay with married people
or girls who have boyfriends. That way I just
stay out of [D]their trouble.
Sorry. Or hope for the three- way, whatever
works. ( I knew that was comin')
It's good to see you down here though,
thank for comin'. I'll even give you

[Verse 2]
the oldschool introduction.
[G]
There used to be stores in New York
where you [D]could actually go and
buy whatever you [G]needed. A little of this,
a little of that.
Which is why I didn't do so
[D]well in school. Then we
learned about the [G]delivery service,
which was even cooler, we didn't
have to leave the apartment. They were
there faster than [D]pizza.

[Verse 3]
So we'd go up [D]the rooftops,
and we'd look out into the city, and you
could see the different [G]windows
flashing so you knew who was
[D]watching who...on t.v.
And through the buildings you
could see the Hudson
that we tried to fish [G]in one time,
but we didn't have [D]any luck. Yeah,
he caught a condom which
was [G]kinda...
Billy used to trip out. Billy used to play [D]the
Jimbay. His was a dunebag(?)
[G]they call it. He'd get all into it....and I
know....far away
[D][G]

[Verse 4]
[D]
They eye of the storm
meets the eye of the mind
sendin' [G]it spinnin'.
The [D]eye of the mind
blushes in lust [G]of all the answers oh [D]oh oh
See eye, of the mind, blushes
in lust of all the [G]answers.
For years of tears oh years
in fear.

[Verse 5]
Oh the bitter [G]water, oh my god, sati[G]ated
And always covered in salt,
[G]keeping me afloat.
And [G]it's always it's
movin' [D]me along.
Movin' [G]me along
When I can see [D]everything,
I can [G]see everything- eh
I can see [D]through buildings.
All the shattered lives,
and all them [G]so- called battered
wives.
And everybody's [D]hypnotized
by the dancing light.
T.V. set makin' everybody [G]go blind.
[D]

[Verse 6]
And I can [G]see everything- eh
I can see [G]through you- oo
oh love love love love [G]love
I can see [G]through you- do
oh love love love [G]love
When [D]I look inside I know oo- oo
what it's all [G]about.
'Cuz [D]you are livin' in a fantasy world,
takin your time
runnin' your mind [G]oh- low- oo
You are [D]livin' in a fantasy land,
holdin' nobody's hand
[G]but your own.
[D]See I- - and I can [G]see everything- eh

[Verse 7]
[D]One drop of rain, that's me.
[G]And the rest is [D]you.
[A]Who [D]shook these tre[A]es ?
Let me guess,
did they [G]come in two's ?
[D](Oh yes they did)

[Verse 8]
See now [D]oh when you're dealing [G]with
the [D]fruits of the uni[G]verse.
[D](luv)
Well you shake that [D]apple [A]tree,
and life [D]deals you an orange,
And either way,
either way you're [G]cursed.
Don't make it a turn for the worst.

[Verse 9]
Oh the bitter [G]water, oh,
sati[G]ated
And always covered in salt,
[G]it's keeping me afloat.
Love- a- duh love- [G]a- duh
It's keeping me afloat, la la
[G]It's always mov[D]in' me along
And I can [G]see everything
everything
everything everything [D]everything
everything [G]everything
everything everything

[Verse 10]
Said it's keepin' [D]me on top
of top of the water,
keepin' [A]me on top [D]of the world.
Keepin' [G]me on top, I'm lookin' [D]out
just to [G]see what everything is all about.
Cuz [D]I know where it is,
just don't know
[G]exactly what it [D]is.
See [G]I think I know [A]where it is
where it is, where it is.
[D]Just don't know [G]exactly
what the hel* it is.

[Verse 11]
But it's where [D]the heart is,
it's where the heart is.
It's where it all [G]started oh luh, oh
It's where [D]the heart is,
it's where the heart is
It's where it all [G]started oh luh oh luh
love- [D]a- duh

[Outro 1]
