			     CLEANSE SONG - Bright Eyes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This song is pretty simple to play, you just have to use open chords through the whole song.

Tuning: EADGBe


			 	          	       
Hear the chimes, did you know that the wind when it blows
      		  	  		
It is older than Rome and all of this sorrow
	   		     	       
See the new Pyramids down in old Manhattan
	  	       		
From the roof of a friend I watched an empire ending
			    
Heard it loud and long, the river's song
		   
Time marching on, to a mad man's drum


      


			   
Don't forget what you've learned
		   
All you give is returned
      		    
And if life seems absurd
	  
What you need is some laughter
		  
And a season to sleep
			
And a place to get clean
		
Maybe Los Angeles
	   
Somewhere no one's expecting


On a detox walk

Over Glendale Park

GOver sidewalk chalk
		     
Some rope read "start over"


So I muffle my scream

On an Oxnard beach
	 		              
Full of fever dreams that scare me sober

Into saltless dinners


      


			 	   			
Take the fruit from the tree, break the skin with your teeth
			   
Is it bitter or sweet all depends on your timing
		   
Like a meeting of chance
	  		 
With the train station glance
				
Many lifetimes have passed in a instant reminded

Of a millstone house in a seaside town
					
When your heart gave out in a mission bed

So your wife gave birth to a funeral dirge
     			 	  
You woke up purged as a wailing infant

In Krug Thep, Thailand


      

      


			 	          	       
Hear the chimes, did you know that the wind when it blows
      		  	  		
It is older than Rome and all of this sorrow
