"Division Day Lyrics"

Everybody's Talkin' Lyrics
Everybody's talking at me I don't hear a word they're saying Only the echoes of my mind People stopping staring I can't see their faces Only the shadows of their eyes I'm going where the sun keeps shining Thru' the pouring rain Going where the weather suits my clothes Backing off of the North East wind Sailing on summer breeze And skipping over the ocean like a stone


Tuning - cgcfad or d(drop c)



Listen to the cd for correct timings



The solo is from the chords, nothing out of key

So just improvise in there and Ill get to the solo

Later.





Intro right before verse 1

Sympathy Lyrics
Sympathy just doesn't mean That much to me Compassion's not The fashion in my mind And if you're looking for A shoulder to cry on Don't turn your head my way 'Cause I'd rather have My music any day You and I are Masters of our destiny We look for consolation all the time Until we find out things are not What they were meant to be, oh no And if it doesn't suit our mood We'll call it crime Dedication's not an obligation Or a figment of Someone's imagination It's the only way they say To live from day to day

Bssola Lyrics
(Duca Leindecker) Eu cometi um crime Pequei perante voc Pensei que era certo O rumo certo de viver Desculpe, me desculpe Desculpe, por favor Mas aprendi errado E vi que o bem um mal menor Refro: No sei se isso basta Se satisfaz teu sonho de caos Talvez algum nos faa Completar a catstrofe global Perdi a hora marcada Fiquei preso no sinal Tua ausncia me cercava Nos vitrs da catedral No sei se vai dar tempo De ficar de bem com o mal Talvez eu ache um Mucker

Gravity Gets Things Done Lyrics
You are the girl with the smiles of gravity, and gravity gets things done. Your always up and your always down, but you make it look so fun. And you want then to see and you want them to know, but they never find the real you. and you never once complaned but now 20 years are gone and your ready to explode I will wait here, darling, to make sure you are okay. I will wait here, darling, for you. I am the one who can solve all you problems A savior with only you to save. And that's why I'm here, at least I tell myself that

It moved him along closer to division day





It just continues...





I spent a long time living with that

Never could give it a name

And when you dont know what youre looking at

Makes it much harder to tame

Mostly theyd meet when he was asleep and

Have some sick exchange

That struck him as wrong

And moved him along closer to division day



(solo)



I cant make an exception for a bad connection

That only goes one way

Sell out for a song where I dont belong

With you on division day



The moon stood up on the ridge

Looking down where the water shines

And a man looking over the bridge

Like hed done so many times

Thinking about how to stay out

Out of troubles way

Flying to fall away from you all

Its over division day

Beautiful division day
