 8 blocks away  would put you at the water  towers from my place,
 What's the difference  when you calculate,
 By crunching  numbers with crunched  up eyelids?
Twenty-six  hundred miles  is 45 hours.
 I tried to count  the space in a million  yellow dashed lines,  and my gas tank's just empty.
 I don't have the balls,  or the where-with-all,  or the cash to fill it
again,
 So I guess it's best  I stick around the house.
 (Violin)
 Measure  my days  and metered my years  in fear and muscle tension,
   Meals and the beds  that I slept in.
 
 Tried to  give a few decent gifts and scribbled a few things off the list,
 But it still  goes something like this.
 Clean your desk,
 Write your ex,
 Do the dishes  and your taxes,
 Throw the shit you don't need away,
 Call the airline  'bout the fast food scam,
 Write to Adam,
 Tape for Craig,
 Throw the beer bottles and the cans away,
 Mix some dirt,
 Underline work.
 (Violin)*
 There's never enough  time, never enough  time.
 We don't have all the hands we need.
 Not enough you's  or me's to be  all the places we want to.
 There's never enough  time, never enough  time.
 I'll siphon these anxieties  onto to-do  lists
 And fidgets and things  and things and things...
 (Violin)*
 Have fun.

[G5]    8 blocks a[B5]way would put you at the [C5]water towers from my place,
What's the [G5]difference when you [B5]calculate,
By [C5]crunching numbers with c[C5]runched up eyelids?

[G5]Twenty-six hundred [B5]miles is 45 [C5]hours.
I tried to [G5]count the space in a [B5]million yellow dashed [C5]lines, and my gas tank's just empty.
[G5]   I don't have the [B5]balls, or the where-with-[C5]all, or the cash to fill it
[G5]again,
So I guess it's [B5]best I stick around the [C5]house.

(Violin)

M[G5]easure my d[B5]ays and metered my y[C5]ears in fear and muscle tension,
 [G5]   Meals and the [B5]beds that I slept in.[C5]
 [G5]       [B5]                [C5]
Tried [G5]to give a few decent gifts and scribbled a few things off the list,
But it s[B5]till goes something like t[C5]his.

[G5]    Clean your de[C5]sk,
Write your [B5]ex,
Do the d[C5]ishes and your taxes,
[D5]    Throw the shit you don't need [C5]away,

[G5]    Call the a[C5]irline 'bout the fast food s[B5]cam,
Write to [C5]Adam,
Tape for [D5]Craig,
Throw the beer bottles and the cans [C5]away,
Mix some dirt,
Underline [G5]work.

(Violin)*
[C5] [C5]  [B5] [B5]  [A5]   [G5] [G5]
[C5] [C5]  [B5] [B5]  [A5]
[G5]    There's never [B5]enough time, never [C5]enough time.

We don't have all the hands we need.
[G5]      Not enough [B5]you's or me's to [C5]be all the places we want to.
[G5]    There's never [B5]enough time, never [C5]enough time.
I'll siphon these anxie[G5]ties onto to-[B5]do lists
And fidgets and [C5]things and things and things...

(Violin)*
[C5] [C5]  [B5] [B5]  [A5]   [G5] [G5]
[C5] [C5]  [B5] [B5]  [A5]   [G5] [G5]
[C5] [C5]  [B5] [B5]  [A5]   [G5] [G5]
[G5]

Have fun.
