CALEXICO - The News About William
Am C Am
4 in the morning the sidewalk's asleep
Am C
Dogs on the porch,
C G
Spiders on the leaf
G Dm Am
Shipwrecked by night sailing through days
Am E Am
Nobody noticed the slipping away
Am C Am
Connecting the dots with thorns in his side
Am C G
Boarded up the Windows with pain and with pride
G Dm Am
The music box broken that once was his soul
Am E Am
Its sad little song spinning out of control
G C G
Then came the storm that washed the roads out
G C G
Closed both his eyes and pointed straight south
G Dm Am
Second line drums marched into the sea
Am E Am
While the clouds overhead cried "mutiny"
Am E Am
They parted for Cathy and her bitter news
Am Dm Am
As her words fail and the sky grew dim
Am E Am
Recalled how close to that exit l've been
C Am C Am
Ours not to reply, ours not to reason why
C G
The news about William
F C
The lifeline retreats
F Am
Desire for release
Am
The thorns in his side
