Chatter

VERSE: ii - i - CMa7 : BbMa7

the lights
watching over my flock
they don't talk
like any shepherds i'd know

when it comes time
offer up a resigned goodnight
wrap it in a plastic disguise
and the gunslinger's on the couch

but the hands
of people i've already met
that i managed to forget
shaken foolishly again

step out
to morning on the east side of town
can hardly recognize it now
when the fog is all burned up

CHORUS: ii - i

its becoming clear
i'm walking in a mirror
give me somewhere to be
walking in a mirror
its becoming clear
i'm walking in a mirror
give me somewhere to be
walking in a

Gunslinger (Mirror Walk)

VERSE Ebmaj7 - Fm7(9)- Fm7 - G7

say goodbye again
for the third time tonight
try to hold my hand
easy enough to oblige

got to sinkin low

act like I can't tell
when you repeat your advance

CHORUS (SAME CHORDS AS VERSE)
you must think i'm dumb - babyyyy (X2)

BRIDGE -

Smooth by Santana and Rob Thomas

taking it for granted
take my common sense
anywhere you go all the people stop and stare
i'd have to say i'm on the fence

zip it up / wise guy
hold your tongue / alibi

speak to me / plainly 
listen up / carefully

makin up the rules
steppin out for a cool smoke
given on the side an unhappy remark
i was still explainin the joke

call me up / baby
honeydew / gasoline

speak to me / so plainly 
listen up / carefully

Unhappy Remark

got to know when to hold em when to fold em yup
