Nicorette by Conor Oberst And The Mystic Valley Band

Connor Oberst: Nicorette (I actually think he spells it nikorette)


I'm just trying to stay a human being
Sitting in the sun eating ice cream          chords: D and G
Texting my friend about a bad, bad dream     
Just trying to find someone who knows me

But I don't got time for your cuckoo clock
And I don't want to go to your Mason Lodge    chords: D and G
There's nothing more sad than a lynching mob
Full of rational men who believe in God

But nothing makes sense when the wave rolls through   chord: A
Nothing makes sense when the wave comes through

        chords: D and G     

Well, if there's something in me, well, I know it's in you    chord: A
If there's something in me, well, I bet it's in you           

My neighbor dreams big because his house is small
Says all he needs now is some capital                     chords: D and G
It's a pirate world, it's a free-for-all
They take your bright ideas and they make them dull

But everyone I see I think I've known before
From the opera house to the grocery store                 chords: D and G
My love for them I cannot ignore
Like a human voice in a quiet morgue

But I don't want to wear no dead man's suit               chord: A
I don't want to wear no dead man's suit

    chord: D and G

I don't want to wait until the moon gets blue             chord: A
I don't want to wait until the moon turns blue

     Bm          A
It's all just a fix
     Bm          A
Just one little hit
You'll hold it in




          Lyrics (repeat same chords)
       
Sitting on a plane chewing nicorette
Paradise lost, haven't found it yet
Will you talk me down if I get upset?
Be the cool washcloth to my fevered head

Because I don't want to dream if it won't come true
I don't want to dream if it don't come true
If there's something in me, well, I guess it's in you
If there's somewhere in me, then I know it's in you

It's all just a fix
Just one little hit
You're holding in
You'll hold it in
You're holding in
You'll hold it in 

And I don't want to dream if it won't come true
I don't want to dream if it don't come true
If there's something in me, well, I guess it's in you
If there's somewhere in me, then I know it's in you
If it happens to me, it's going to happen to you
Whatever happens to me, it's going to happen to you
