In the Direction of the Moon Wolf Parade
Dm Am G F x2
[Dm]I- [Am] [G] I'm a w[F]all of sand, and s[Dm]ton[Am]e, [G] [F]
and [Dm]you - you're s[Am]ome kind of i[G]vy
I'm tr[F]ying to h[Dm]old[Am] [G]
as b[F]est as I can[Dm] [Am] [G]
as b[F]est as I can.[Dm] [Am] [G]
But I[F]'m a disa[Dm]ster!
I c[Am]ould not be burning fa[G]ster!
I stick my a[F]rms into w[Dm]ebs![Am] [G]
I take my m[F]eals with we[Dm]irdos,[Am] [G]
and play with [F]my rocket s[Dm]hips.[Am] [G]
And all the w[Dm]hile, y[F]ou -
- you - are so com[C]posed.
[C]so com[F]posed
[F]so com[C]posed
[F]You are the most gracious thing I k[C]now -
[F]touched by cooking fires, touched by s[C]now.
[F]Woah.
And[Am] I [G]- I th[Am]ink you're fant[G]astic,
and[Am] I [G]- I k[Am]now that you c[G]are.
[Am]I'll put my ro[G]ckets a[Am]way,[G]
if [Am]you let f[G]all
your ho[Am]use of sk[G]in and air.
Dm Am G F x4
[Dm] [Em] [F] [G] [Dm]
[Dm]I've been running off of f[Em]umes, again.[F]
I've been running off my m[G]outh.[Am]
I've been running in the ho[F]urs
between midnight and dawn
in the direction of the m[C]oon,
with the impression
that's the w[G]ay- the way to find your house.
So [Dm]hey[Am], [G] have you b[F]uilt your bas[Dm]tio[Am]n?[G] [F]
And [Dm]hey, [Am]how lo[G]ng can you p[F]ut up with these ques[Dm]tions,[Am]
when yo[G]u've got no[F]where to go
except into the terrible air?
And[Am] I [G]- I th[Am]ink you're fant[G]astic,
and[Am] I [G]- I k[Am]now that you c[G]are.
[Am]I'll put my ro[G]ckets a[Am]way,[G]
if [Am]you let f[G]all
your ho[Am]use of sk[G]in and
- Er[Bm]ring on the side of cau[A]tion - appa[G]rently past,
[Bm]come down from the r[A]im of that crystal gl[G]ass.
Cause[Dm] I [Am]- [G] I'm wall of sa[F]nd, and st[Dm]one[Am], [G] [F]
and [Dm]you - you're s[Am]ome kind of i[G]vy
I'm tr[F]ying to h[Dm]old[Am] [G]
as b[F]est as I c[F#m]an.[E] [D]
