Instrumental Intro
Verse 1
Woke up Tuesday to a headline
That don't mention me by name
They wrote the truth in disappearing ink
And I signed it just the same
Pre-Chorus
Somebody's talking soft and slow
Somebody's selling what they stole
Chorus
Silent narration
Running through the wire
Silent narration
Fanning little fires
They hand me pretty sentences
I swallow every line
Silent narration
Tell me yours and I'll tell mine
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh mm-hmm
Oh-oh mm-hmm
Verse 2
My neighbor swears the sky is falling
His brother swears it ain't
I drove two hundred miles of highway
Chasing what I can't
Pre-Chorus
Somebody's talking soft and slow
Somebody's selling what they stole
Chorus
Silent narration
Running through the wire
Silent narration
Fanning little fires
They hand me pretty sentences
I swallow every line
Silent narration
Tell me yours and I'll tell mine
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh mm-hmm
Oh-oh mm-hmm
Bridge
Fold it once
Fold it twice
Pass it down the row
By the time it reaches me
I don't even know
What was said
Who was there
Why I ought to care
Guitar Solo
Verse 3
I got a letter from the capital
Full of nothing dressed in gold
It said believe me twice on Sunday
Then it never called me home
Pre-Chorus
Somebody's talking soft and slow
Somebody's selling what they stole
Chorus
Silent narration
Running through the wire
Silent narration
Fanning little fires
They hand me pretty sentences
I swallow every line
Silent narration
Tell me yours and I'll tell mine
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh mm-hmm
Oh-oh mm-hmm
Outro
Mm-hmm
Oh-oh
