My Pillow Is The Threshold

Tom: Am

Am             Em
I take decaf coffee
      Am            Em
Two sugars and one cream
     Am                Dm
 don't see the use in staying
 F
up Just to watch tv

 Am Em
I unplug all the neon
Am Em
Turn the ringer off the phone
Am                                         Dm
Throw my thoughts like tomahawks
                      F
Into this world which I disown


   Am                    Dm
Because the pillow that i dream on
   F                        Am
Is the threshold of a kingdom
             Dm
Is the threshold of a
  Em               Am
world Where I'm with you

Am                      Dm
Its a dark and snowy secret
       F             Am
And it has to do with heaven
          Dm
And what looks like sleep
Em          Am
Is really hot pursuit


                      Am                Em
I hold your picture in my mind
                       Am                  Em
It makes me warm when I'm cold
                        Dm Am
It gets me up, it makes me walk
                         F
It makes me question what I'm told

             Am                Em
Somewhere in a foggy atlas
                Am                Em
Lookout mountain,     lookout sea
                    Am                Dm
First LIFE takes time,      Then TIME takes life
                  F
Now the next move's up to me

     Am                   Dm
Because the pillow that I dream on
   F                 Am
Leads to some fantastic glory
      Dm             Em
It's a threshold of a world
     Am
I can't ignore

       Am              Dm
Like time on school from heaven
          F                      Am
Did you find me sleeping in your doorway
         Dm
Now I'm here for good
     Em             Am
I won't leave you anymore
