Drinking As Religion

C
After all this useless fighting, after all our
F
schemes We could sense a final battle and started picking
C
teams Due to lack of good direction, i fell in with
F
thieves And took to drinking as religion and landed on my
C
knees Truth that starts as understanding finds you in the
F
night And circles all around the ceiling a frightened bird in
C
flight After spending hours beneath it, everything comes
F
clear Truth will pose no danger to you, what hunts you both is
C
fear Somewhere in our everafter telephones still
F
ring Somewhere in future journals, love still means
    C
something I have learned a mighty lesson from this change of
F
plans Loss is brutal, i can't stand it, i wonder how you
C
can

C
And all the while there's dogs a-barking
Streets are talking out my window
F
Out the light and the snow is flaking,
hearts are breaking Words are making a
C
mess out of these
Thoughts i'm thinking, boats keep sinking
It's drown or keep drinking
F
And if this darkness came from light
                                    C
Then light can come from darkness i guess
F
If this darkness came from light
                                    C
Then light can come from darkness i guess
