came back to A  and
    D/F#       Em
she fucked his brother

Now she's one more in
            A/C#  D
the running for deciphering
                     G
his tongue Like that hieroglyphic
D/F#          G       D/F# Em   D
battle by Champollion and  Young

  I am cryptic   as the ages
G              D/F#
  Been writing riddles since
  G         D/F#   Em
I first put ink to pages
D     Bm
But I know that love is
      A/C#  D
music if we play with open
             G
hands And my love won't

And we're a stone's throw
 D            Bm
away from our own language
       Em              A
And if I wasn't the Victorian
             D        Bm
type I would tell him so
                 Em
And vanquish any doubt
            A
But there's something
           Bm
about competition
     F#/A#
that leaves a bad
A           E/G#
taste in my mouth
             Em
But we're a stone
         A
We're a stone's throw

  alive from the tomb
G              D/F#
  They all get lit up
        G       D/F#
when he walks into
    Em   D  Bm
the room But  music is
                A/C#
the real tongues
     D
It's timeless and free
     G                D/F#
And stretches from Memphis
         G      D/F#   Em D
Egypt to Memphis Tennessee

moonlit daisy garden
               G
to their own excavations
       D/F#
with a compass and we'll
