The Base Lyrics & Tabs by Paul Banks
The Base
guitar chords lyrics
What I draw today
could be recognized as shape
I spoke to the base
and the base says we wait
so I smoke an old cigar
while they're trying some things
see I spoke to the base
and the base says we wait
the base says we're safe
now and then can I see the truth above the lies
now and then oh I feel you're truly amidst the tides
that's why
When I walk today
it's in silence and in rage
can a man turn the page
When I walk today
it's in silence and in rage
can a man turn the page
while he's trying to amaze
(any other)
so I hold my arms apart
and won't deny you anything
(any other)
see i spoke to the base
and the base says we're there
the base says we win
now and then I can see the truth above the lies
now and then oh I feel those beauties it's like their lights
they're like street lights
they tunnel on and on
into these deep nights
where the lights circle on
oh so steep
so steep
so steep
so steep
so steep
(I count the falling stars) so steep
so steep
so steep
so steep
(I count the falling stars) so steep
I will not be staying long
now and then I can see the truth above the lies
now and then can see those beauties that shine my eyes
that's why
