Twist In My Sobriety

| Em | Am7 | B | Em |
| All God's children need | travelling shoes, | drive your problems from | here, |
| Em | Am7 | B | Em |
| All good people read.. | . good books, | now your conscience is | clear |
| B | Em |
I hear you talk, girl, | now your conscience is | clear |
| Em | Am7 | B | Em |
| In the morning when I | wipe my brow, | wipe the miles a | way, |
| Em | Am7 | B | Em |
| I like to think I can | be so willed, | and never do what you | say |
| B | Em | N.C. |
I'll never hear you, | and never do what you | say | |
| B | Em | B | Em |
Look my | eyes are just holo | grams, Look your | love has drawn red from my | hands, |
| Am7 | Em | B | Em |
From my | hands you know you'll never | be, more than | twist in my sobrie | ty, |
| B | Em | B | Em |
More than | twist in my sobrie | ty, more than | twist in my sobri | ty. |

| We just poked a little | ...empty pie, | for the fun that peopl | e had at night, |
| Em | Am7 | B | Em |
| Late at night don't need host | ility, | timid smile, and | pause to free, |
| Em | Am7 |
| I don't care about their... | different thoughts, |
| B | Em |
| Different thoughts are | good for me, |
| Em | Am7 | B | Em | N.C. |
| Up in arms and | chaste the whole, | all God's children too | k their toll | |
| B | Em | B | Em |
Look my | eyes are just holo | grams, Look your | love has drawn red from my | hands, |
| Am7 | Em | B | Em |
From my | hands you know you'll never | be, more than | twist in my sobrie | ty, |
| B | Em | B | Em |
More than | twist in my sobrie | ty, more than | twist in my sobri | ty. |

| Cup of tea, take | time to think, yeah, | ...time to risk a | life, a life, a life, |
| Em | Am7 | B | Em |
| Sweet and handsome, | ...soft and porky, you | pig out 'til you've seen the | light, |
| B | Em | Em |

| Half the people.. | . read the papers, | read them good and | well, |
| Em | Am7 | B | Em |
| Pretty people, | nervous people, | people have got to | sell, |
| B | Em | (STOP) |
| News you have to s | ell | |
Look my eyes are just holograms, Look your love has drawn red from my hands, | |
From my hands you know you'll never be, | |
More than twist in my sobriety, more than twist in my sobriety. | |
| Em |
Look my eyes are just holo | grams, Look your love has drawn red from my hands, |
From my hands you know you'll never be, | |
More than twist in my sobriety, more than twist in my sobriety. | |
