Joe Versus the Volcano Lyrics & Tabs by Henning Ohlenbusch
Joe Versus the Volcano
guitar chords lyrics
She said the waves affect your dreams
I'm dreaming of a warm and golden light
Unlike these tubes hanging over me
That are buzzing angrily and flickering sickly white light
You've sat slouched in that chair for years
Like a struggling flower in a parking lot
We disappear in our careers
But every morning you would nudge my heart.
I'm sorry that I left you there, but you didn't have the view I had.
Life changing news can make things stark
Exaggerate the difference between the light and dark
You might see things you've never seen before
The enormous dog, the tiny lady, or the round car.
I'm sorry that I left them there, but they didn't have the view I had.
I see your face everywhere I go
The enormous dog, the tiny lady, or the round car.
I'm sorry that I left them there, but they didn't have the view I had.
I see your face everywhere I go
Here, beneath the make-up of a chronic debutante
Who thinks she can't make it on her own
And hangs her painting in her father's restaurant.
There's nothing wrong with that.
I'm sorry that I left her there, but she didn't have the view I had.
There is a current we can float on. We'll get there.
I never knew how big the world could get.
If someday I forget, I'll think of this moment.
Cowboy, cowboy.
I've been swindled, I've been mislead, I've been fooled with unusual jargon
But I resolve to hold up my end of the bargain
Now I've got this brand-new life I never thought I'd have
Still, it'll always be something with me
But you're cool with that.
I'm thankful that you took me there, ‘cause I didn't have the view you had
I'm thankful that you took me there, ‘cause I didn't have the view you had
There is a current we can float on. We'll get there.
I never knew how big the world could get
If someday I forget. I'll think of this moment.
Cowboy, cowboy.
