[Verse 1]
        E Esus4
Call me rider
         Esus4 E
Call me anything
          E      Esus4
Call me what you like
                          E Esus4
There's no good names for soul
              E Esus4
'Cause you know me
     E Esus4
Sycamore spit-twine
       E Esus4              E Esus4
These knotted boughs must write
    E Esus4
Of each injustice
        E Esus4
Every solstice in white
     E Esus4       E Esus4           E Esus4   E Esus4
We slung tobacci beyond our rising, rot-mines
   E Esus4                 E Esus4                   Asus2
As trinkets get loosed us canaries will trill on sing-song

[Bridge]
   Asus2
New paragons
              G#            Bm
There's one place I once belonged
    Asus2
But straight from the heart I’ve wrought not one speck of proof
E Esus4 E Esus4
    Asus2
So, dead punks traipse your streets
      G#  Bm
Not a ghoul has your heat
    Asus2
A streak from this heart I'll beat
               E Esus4 Esus4 E
My wings over you

[Chorus]
             E Esus4
'Cause you know me
Esus4 E            E  Esus4 Esus4 E
Rider, I've got a soul

E Esus4 Esus4 E

[Verse 2]
         E  Esus4
Call me rider
          E  Esus4
Call me anyone
          E  Esus4
Spell me what you like
                             E  Esus4
There's no good cause, I'm told
Esus4
'Cause you know me
       E Esus4
Happenstance twins brine
                         E Esus4
And dread, besotted, clementine
                            E Esus4
Oh, mighty father drippin’ U.S. blue
       E Esus4         E Esus4                E Esus4   E Esus4
Whence stiff religion rose our every roof with hindsight
   E Esus4                E Esus4
So laughs the lancer who forgot how to ride

[Bridge]
        Asus2
Ponies freed as tresses flee
         G#                        Bm
Nouveau salons writ, continental spree
      Asus2                                      E Esus4 Esus4 E
But straight from this heart I wheeze no guarantees
           Asus2
Just two twigs from a tree of life
  G#                        Bm
Gives one pause to take a wife
     Asus2
Yet straight from this heart I'd lie
                         E Esus4 Esus4 E
Just to tell you the truth

[Chorus]
            E Esus4
'Cause you know me
Esus4 E           E Esus4 Esus4
Rider, I've a soul
            E Esus4
'Cause you know me
                E
Rider, I've a soul
