Am4                      Em
Hill not the top not the bottom but the middle and I
G2                     G2/F#

Am                   Em
Vacant lot there's a row of tiny houses there
G2                       G2/F#

Man with an axe cut its voice box out but my
G2                           G2/F#
Older sister told me that it prob'ly wasn't true and I
Am4                             Em

Money 'round the corner and I would've gone along but she

Always sing the harmonies when we'd sing along she had
G2                       G2/F#
Cool cool hands when the fever hit then the
Am4                         Em
Noises that the trains made sounded like people in my

Head and the stories that the ceiling told through the
F#o                           G/B
Pictures in the grains in the pinewood boards and I could
Dsus4                 D
