All Of Everything Erased

• Dm

A great song by a great artist
I think he actually plays this with a capo on the fifth fret
same chord sounds, just chord shapes in C
big baby


Dm
  this is the window where
A7
  i watched the future start
C
  my pupils dilated
Dsus4
  the shock sped up my arms
Bb
  i shut my ambushed eyes
C                                F
  and turned my face towards the heat

Dm
  i felt the city choke
A7
  i heard the world at war
C
  i prayed for providence
Dsus4
  god said, ’don’t pray no more
Bb
  you went and made your mess
C                            F
  now keep your blame off my feet’

Dm
  so i got off my knees
A7
  i faced the devil’s day
C
  the sky was murder red
Dsus4
  the streets were headstone gray
Bb
  a flaming ferris wheel
C                            Bb
  spun where the sun used to be

Bb                    C
i watched its buckets dip and dance
Bb                    C
i saw a couple making love lock hands
          F           C               Bbm               F
they were pushing for abandon and the answers it could bring
A7                        Bb                C         Dm
90 million miles from the graveyard growing over everything

Dm
  i saw my lover chased
A7
  through fields of sugarcane
C
  she clutched her belly close
Dsus4
  and whispered, "keep us safe"
Bb
  they ground her down to dust
C                    F
  no more miracles today

Dm
  i dreamt myself awake
A7  
  in a resort hotel
C
  above a golden coast
Dsus4
  beside my Southern belle
Bb
  we heard the sea reborn
C                 F
  in each singing shell

Dm
  and every coughing car
A7
  and every coiled snake
C
  and every shrieking star
Dsus4
  and every burning stake
Bb
  dissolved to atmosphere
C                     Bb
  all of everything, erased

Bb              C
i spread into a distant hum
Bb                  C
i droned along with everyone
        F                    C                 Bbm              F
and the earth grew green and nursed herself to what she used to be
A7                                   Bb           C           F  C  A7
all our senseless shouting calmed to quiet in her ancient memory

    Dm          Bb C
and oh!, what a joy,
      F    C
to be free.
