Cape Canaveral (ver 3) by Conor Oberst And The Mystic Valley Band

Capo 2nd fret


G

G
Oh, oh, oh brother totem pole 
G
I saw your legends lined up 
                              D 
And I never felt more natural 
 Em              D     Em
Apart, I just came     apart 

G
Please, please, please sister Socrates 
G
You always answer with a question 
                                    D 
Show some kindness to a petty thief 
   Em          D      Em
Forgive, you did    forgive 

          C                     D
Watch the migrants smoke in the old orange grove 
        G                     C
And the red rocket blaze over Cape Canaveral 
              C               D       
You�ve been a father to me In 1960�s speak 
       G                 C             
In the comatose joy that we�re on TV 
           Am                          
While the mountain�s side was shining 
                          G
Wild colors of my destiny 

               Am
I watched your face age backwards 
                             G
Changing shape in my memory 
              Am
You taught me victory�s sweet 
                             G
Even deep in the cheap seats 

G G D Em D Em

G
Hey, hey, hey mother interstate 
G
Can you deliver me from evil 
                                     D
Make me honest make me wedding cake 
 Em         D    Em                 
Atone, I will  atone 

G
Wait, wait, wait mighty outer-space 
G
All that flying saucer terror 
                               D
Made me lazy drinking lemonade 
  Em                D       Em
A waste, it just went     to waste 

         C                  D    
Like the Freon cold out the hotel door 
       G                      C  
Or the white rocket fade over Cape Canaveral 
              C                   D
You�ve been a daughter to me your buried shoe-box grief 
            G                     C                   
I felt your poltergeist love like savannah heat 
          Am                     
While the waterfall was pouring 
                            G   
Crazy symbols of my destiny 
               Am                
I watched your face die backwards 
                         G      
Little baby in my memory 
            Am                   
You told me victory's sweet 
                             G  
Even deep in the cheap seats 

C                    Em  C               
And you don�t judge me 
                D      C      
That�s not your style 
                   Em      
But I won�t see you 
      Bm          C        
for a little while 
               Em              C           
And there�s no worries, oh lord 
          D    C                 
Whose got time 
          Em                 D   
All these changes are going to fill your mind 
                               
         C                   D                                  
Like the citrus glow off the old orange grove 
       G                     C                                  
Or the red rocket blaze over Cape Canaveral 
            C                      D                            
It�s been a nightmare to me Some 1980�s grief 
         G                     C                                
Gives me parachute dreams Like old war movies 
          Am                                               G     
While the universe was drawn Perfect circles form infinity 

              Am                 
I watched the stars get smaller 
                           G    
Tiny diamonds in my memory 
            Am                   
I know that victory is sweet 
                             G  
Even deep in the cheap seats
