[D]let [Dmaj9]the    [D]cam[Dmaj9]era   [G]pull back
[G]til the fullness of the [Asus4]frame is clear and plain[D]  [Dmaj9]        [D]          [Dmaj9]
[D]pee[Dmaj9]r into[D] the [Dmaj9]screen unt[G]il you see it all
[Asus4]like a vision in a crystal ball[D]  [Dmaj9]        [D]          [Dmaj9]

[E]let it all fill with [A]smoke
[D]is this somebody's idea of a [G]joke?

[D]let [Dmaj9]the fi[D]xer[Dmaj9] work unt[G]il the silver's washed away
[Asus4]and take the picture from the tra[D]y [Dmaj9]       [D]         [Dmaj9]

crawl through the tunnel and follow,
follow the light northwest
see that young man who dwells inside his body
like an uninvited guest

[F#]see the tunnel [Bm]twist
[E]clutch your birthright in your [A]fist

(same as other verses)
let the camera do its dirty work
down there in the dark
sink low, rise high, and bring back some blurry pictures
to remember all your darker moments by

[E]permanent bruises on our [A]knees
never for[D]get what it felt like to live in [G]rooms like these

[G]from the california coast[A]line
[D]to the iowa [G]corn
[G]to the rooms with the heat [A]lamps where the [D]snak[Dsus9]es get[D] b[Dsus9]orn
