The Chord
The arch echoed his voice to the sky and the droplets of rain
A voice that has screamed sunshine and pain
When the strings ring and don't sound out
That's when he shifted down and around
Well I had somewhere to be but nowhere to go
Could've been the last waltz or a free show
I still couldn't find the chord he couldn't play
So I'll come back to see him play another day
I dropped a dollar in his guitar case but the wind blew it away
I dropped my love in his guitar case and the wind blew it away
Walked around not knowing what to find
I'm just a pragmatist in the wrong time
They travel under and above but not on the ground
They move from your sight unwilling to be found
So I tried to play the chord so they would appear
Maybe there is something more powerful than fear
So I still couldn't find the chord he couldn't play
I'll come back to see him play another day
I dropped a dollar in his guitar case but the wind blew it away
Yeah I dropped my love in her guitar case and the wind blew it away
Finally the man dropped the music and he was out of time
How could someone be so full of life and so blind
In shrouds of silence I walked away blue
On my way to find something true
Well I still couldn't find the chord he couldn't play
I'll come back to see him play another day
I dropped a dollar in his guitar case but the wind blew it away
Yeah I dropped my love in her guitar case and the wind blew it away
Well I still couldn't find the chord he couldn't play
So I'll come back to see him play another day
I dropped a dollar in his guitar case but the wind blew it away
I dropped my love in her guitar case and the wind blew it away
A voice that has screamed sunshine and pain
When the strings ring and don't sound out
That's when he shifted down and around
Well I had somewhere to be but nowhere to go
Could've been the last waltz or a free show
I still couldn't find the chord he couldn't play
So I'll come back to see him play another day
I dropped a dollar in his guitar case but the wind blew it away
I dropped my love in his guitar case and the wind blew it away
Walked around not knowing what to find
I'm just a pragmatist in the wrong time
They travel under and above but not on the ground
They move from your sight unwilling to be found
So I tried to play the chord so they would appear
Maybe there is something more powerful than fear
So I still couldn't find the chord he couldn't play
I'll come back to see him play another day
I dropped a dollar in his guitar case but the wind blew it away
Yeah I dropped my love in her guitar case and the wind blew it away
Finally the man dropped the music and he was out of time
How could someone be so full of life and so blind
In shrouds of silence I walked away blue
On my way to find something true
Well I still couldn't find the chord he couldn't play
I'll come back to see him play another day
I dropped a dollar in his guitar case but the wind blew it away
Yeah I dropped my love in her guitar case and the wind blew it away
Well I still couldn't find the chord he couldn't play
So I'll come back to see him play another day
I dropped a dollar in his guitar case but the wind blew it away
I dropped my love in her guitar case and the wind blew it away
