All These Things

[G] [D] [Am] [C]

From every [G]shadow there are [D]things that follow [Am]you  [C]
From your [G]late night dead end [D]job
From the old [Am]neighborhoods where [C]you grew
[G]There's a fallen [D]satellite
[Am](That keeps me [C]awake at night)
[G]There's a chocolate [D]fondue
[Am](With no nutritio[C]nal value)
[G]There's a ground [D]invasion
[Am](With complete color [C]coordination)
[G]There's a slit on [D]the screen
[Am](That is not a [C]trampoline)
[G]There's a him with a [D]hand on the [Am]heart  [C]

[G] [D] [Am] [C]

And all these [G]things will [D]follow [Am]you    [C]
And all these [G]things will [D]follow [Am]you    [C]

Staying locked inside all day is no big deal
But I've yet to read a travel brochure
That could change the way that I feel
It's suffocating in the car
(That's just the way some families are)
It's a book you'll get around to read
(It's a pet that you forgot to feed)
It's an ex-boyfriend you can't forget
(A godparent you've never met)
It's a fear that began
One single Elvis fan can be wrong
The other 49 odd million screaming others also can

[G]Ah[D]..[Am].  [C]

And those things will follow you
And those things will follow you
And their lights will shine right through
So when you open up your eyes
They will know you when they do

Did you steal my pen? I left it here
(You mean the one behind your ear)
You're just a piece of work, that's all
(Take me and hang me on the wall)
Away from where the guards linger
(You touched the painting with your finger)
And I was placed under gallery arrest
(It's a chance to wear your Sunday best)
And look sharp on the stand
And raise my right shaking hand
And swear everything I say is true
On a first edition copy of Peter Pan

Ah...

And those things will follow you
And those things will follow you
And their lights will shine right through you
So when you open up your eyes
They will know you when they do

And all those things will follow you
And those things will follow you
And their lights will shine right through you
So when you open up your eyes
They will know you when they do

Yeah, when you open up your eyes
They will know you when they do
Yeah, when you open up your eyes everyone will know its you
