White Lyrics & Tabs by Okkervil River
White
guitar chords lyrics
We crashed through crazed glass in the white-hot burst of the fiery blast
We flared through choked air, in the deafening blare, in the scattering ash
Summer's here and I'm gonna crack, crack, crack
Summer's here and I'm gonna crack
We sort through shocked quartz in a jewelry store whilst your sister and dad
Consort with kept courtesans, while the whole world is in ruins we laugh
Summer's here and I'm gonna cry, cry, cry
Summer's here and I'm gonna cry
Summer's here and I'm near a heart attack or flash of real feeling
Teeth gnashing, and blasting and reeling through black
'Cause, kids, when I first saw your mom, well, I was right and she was wrong
About just the kind of man she was bringing back
And when I first met her dad, well, I felt good and he felt bad
But, kids, you'll find that, over time, you're just trapped
Spring is gone and you're gonna gasp, gasp, gasp
And when I first met her dad, well, I felt good and he felt bad
But, kids, you'll find that, over time, you're just trapped
Spring is gone and you're gonna gasp, gasp, gasp
Spring is gone and you're gonna gasp
Gasp
And, friends, when I first saw the groom rise from the darkness of the tomb, I was unnerved though overall I was wowed
When I first saw the bride, the look inside her eyes just cried, "if someone has some cause to stop, say it now"
Fall is here, and the leaves all come down, down, down
Fall is here, and the leaves all come down, down, down
Winter's here, it's too cold to drown, drown, drown
Winter's here, it's too cold to drown, drown, drown
Winter's here, it's too cold to drown, drown, drown
Winter's here, it's too cold to drown, drown, drown
Winter's here, it's too cold to drown, drown, drown
Winter's here, it's too cold to drown, drown, drown
Winter's here, it's too cold to drown, drown, drown
Winter's here, it's too cold to drown, drown, drown
Winter's here, and I'm nearly whited-out, snowblind
It's no business of mine if life don't want me around
