Cape Canaveral by Conor Oberst And The Mystic Valley Band Capo 2nd fret G G Oh, oh, oh brother totem pole G I saw your legends lined up D And I never felt more natural Em D Em Apart, I just came apart G Please, please, please sister Socrates G You always answer with a question D Show some kindness to a petty thief Em D Em Forgive, you did forgive C D Watch the migrants smoke in the old orange grove G C And the red rocket blaze over Cape Canaveral C D You’ve been a father to me In 1960’s speak G C In the comatose joy that we’re on TV Am While the mountain’s side was shining G Wild colors of my destiny Am I watched your face age backwards G Changing shape in my memory Am You taught me victory’s sweet G Even deep in the cheap seats G G D Em D Em G Hey, hey, hey mother interstate G Can you deliver me from evil D Make me honest make me wedding cake Em D Em Atone, I will atone G Wait, wait, wait mighty outer-space G All that flying saucer terror D Made me lazy drinking lemonade Em D Em A waste, it just went to waste C D Like the Freon cold out the hotel door G C Or the white rocket fade over Cape Canaveral C D You’ve been a daughter to me your buried shoe-box grief G C I felt your poltergeist love like savannah heat Am While the waterfall was pouring G Crazy symbols of my destiny Am I watched your face die backwards G Little baby in my memory Am You told me victory's sweet G Even deep in the cheap seats C Em C And you don’t judge me D C That’s not your style Em But I won’t see you Bm C for a little while Em C And there’s no worries, oh lord D C Whose got time Em D All these changes are going to fill your mind C D Like the citrus glow off the old orange grove G C Or the red rocket blaze over Cape Canaveral C D It’s been a nightmare to me Some 1980’s grief G C Gives me parachute dreams Like old war movies Am G While the universe was drawn Perfect circles form infinity Am I watched the stars get smaller G Tiny diamonds in my memory Am I know that victory is sweet G Even deep in the cheap seats www.TAB6.com
