 the intro isn't chord for chord but i'd hope you get the idea.
I'm  pushing pins through the pavement.
I'm  adding days to the week.
I  feel the city sidewalk  shake beneath  me
while  everyone sleeps.
 INTRO RIFF AGAIN
I'm  spiking punch and Judy  send  offs
with  silver dollars I stole
from  Michael's dresser somewhere  back in  Brooklyn
while  he was out digging holes.
I  wrote the horse you rode in  on a letter
to  keep the focus off me,  and make it stay  there,
to  keep you guessing while the shift  change splits  the streets,
but  I still can't sleep.
