 We wakeup different, rifle through our dreams      (Riff 1)
 Another placid day, ripples at the seams           (Riff 2 w/ fill 3)

 Do you think I bow out cause I think you're right? (Fig. 4)

 So tangle-minded then so becalmed                  (Riff 1)
 It's all so subway-grim and then it's gone         (Riff 2 w/ fill 3)

 Do you think I bow out cause I think you're right? (Fig. 4)

 We get so weary taking fish off hooks              (Riff 1)
 It's not as effortless as it may look              (Riff 2 w/ fill 6)

 Do you think I bow out cause I think you're right? (Fig. 4)
 Or cause I don't wanna fight?                      (Fig. 4)

 We lay down seething, smell our pillows burn       (Riff 1)
 And drift off to the place where you'd think we'd learn   (Riff 2/ fill 7)

 Do you think I bow out cause I think you're right?  (Fig. 4)
 Or cause I don't wanna fight?                       (Fig. 4)
