Horses  by my window go
 When you're fast  asleep far below
 And I hope  that you never know
 That while you sleep  I still find time  for my old ghosts
See  I was born just yesterday
 And I try  to tell my feet to stay but they won't
 You know it's hard  to find a friend
 But I'm dumb  and I might change my mind again
 When it's slow  I think I'd rather die
 Then pass this off  on some unsuspecting  child
Angie  came to me today
 And said she was born  to lead but not to say
 That she knows  there's no hope
 Of making good  on all those promises  that she wrote
Surely  there's been some  mistake
 Some blind  omission or a spot for change but no
 You know it's hard  to find a friend
 But I'm dumb  and I might change my mind again
 When I'm low  I still look to ghosts
 To keep a cool eye  on the hand  that holds my throat
See  I was born just yesterday
 And I try  to tell my feet to stay but they won't

[C]Horses by my window go
When you're [F]fast asleep far below
And I h[C]ope that you never kn[Gsus2]ow
That while you [F]sleep I still find [Fsus2]time for my old ghosts

[C]

[Am]See I was born just [C]yesterday
And I [F]try to tell my feet to stay but they w[C]on't
You know it's h[Gsus2]ard to find a friend
But I'm d[C]umb and I might change my mind again
When it's s[F]low I think I'd rather [Gsus2]die
Then pass this [F]off on some u[Fsus2]nsuspecting child

[C]Angie came to me today
And said she was [F]born to lead but not to say
That she [C]knows there's no [Gsus2]hope
Of making [F]good on all those p[Fsus2]romises that she wrote

[C]

[Am]Surely there's been [C]some mistake
Some b[F]lind omission or a spot for change but [C]no
You know it's [Gsus2]hard to find a friend
But I'm [C]dumb and I might change my mind again
When I'm [F]low I still look to g[Gsus2]hosts
To keep a cool [F]eye on the h[Fsus2]and that holds my throat

[Am]See I was born just [C]yesterday
And I [F]try to tell my feet to stay but they [C]won't
