(end of verse goes from A to Dm to A real quick) E D A the day i turned my back on all you people E D A i felt an itching in my thumbs C#m B7 F#m B7 salt air like a broadcast from the distant dark beyond A D A (Dm/A) when my transformation comes i went down to the warm warm water saw a pelican fly past waved once at the highway and then left all that behind me i went wading through the grass Bm Dm A and no one was gonna come and get me Bm Dm A there wasn't anybody gonna know F#m D C#m F#m even though i leave a trail of burnt things in my wake A D A (Dm/A) every single place i go and it was cool and it was quiet in the humid marsh down there i let my head sink down the brackish water felt it gumming up my hair the sun was sinking into the atlantic the last time that i turned my back on you i tried summon up a little prayer as i went under it was the best that i could do and i said let them all fare better than your servant the reeds all pricking at my skin here's hoping they have better luck than i had down here with them all that water rushing in
