Becoming a Jackal

Tom: Am

Verso 1:
Am     Am/G    D
  The most familiar rose 
 B                    Em
Every implement was leading to you 
           C                  G
And your homely sense of dissaray 
                Dm
Never once the same 
C     C/B    Am
Always rearranged 
     Am/G          D
But things would never change 
B                         Em
In the seam between the window frame 
            C                      G
Where the jackals preyed on every soul 
                          Dm
Where they tied you to a pole 
C      C/B                  G
And stripped you of your clothes 

Refrão:
( G )        C    Bm
   I was a dreamer 
G              C    Bm
   Staring out windows 
G               C       Bm
   Out onto the main street 
Em                       C        Bm
   Cause that's where the dream goes 

Verso 2:     
           Am      Am/G          D
And each time they found fresh meat to chew 
B                       Em
I would turn away and return to you 
            C                   G
You would offer me your unmade bed 
                  Dm    C
Feed me till I'm fed   
        C/B           Am
And read me till I'm read
     Am/G      D 
But when the morning came 
B                           Em
You would catch me at the window again 
        C                      G
In an eyes wide open sleeping state 
               Dm  C
Staring into space
         C/B           G
With no look upon my face 

Refrão:
( G )        C    Bm
   I was a dreamer 
G              C    Bm
   Staring out windows 
G                C       Bm
   Out onto the main street 
Em                         C        Bm
   Cause that's where the dream goes 

Ponte:
C                G
And when I got older
C             G 
When I grew bolder
Dm                       G
Out onto the streets I flew 
C                    G
Released from your shackles 
C                   G
I danced with the Jackals 
Dm                        G
And learned a new way to move

Verso 3:
         Am    Am/G      D 
So before you take this song as truth 
B                             Em
You should wonder what I'm taking from you 
        C                     G
How I benefit from you being here 
                 Dm   C                     
Lending me your ears 
           C/B             G
While I'm selling you my fears 

( G )        C    Bm
   I was a dreamer     (I'm selling you my fears) 
G               C    Bm
   Staring out windows   (I'm selling you my fears) 
G                C       Bm
   Out onto the main street   (I'm selling you my fears) 
Em                        C        Bm
   Cause that's where the dream goes    (I'm selling you...) 

G         C    Bm
  I was a dreamer 
G              C    Bm
   Staring out windows 
G               C       Bm
   Out onto the main street 
Em                       C        Bm
   Cause that's where the dream goes
