Danny Callahan
Conor Oberst And The Mystic Valley Band
Text File
Conor uses a capo on the 2nd fret to play this
F#m  F   F#m  F  E
A
Green world, love the chloroform
Bm
Front porch in the thunderstorm
D		Bm		A
Controlled chaos, confused energy
A
So stop reading the weather charts
Bm
Stop counting the playing cards
D		Bm		A
There's no system, there's no guarantee
D			    E			A
That the love you feel and carry inside can be passed
D			          E		A
But you try, and all you do is just talk to the past
	  Bm		E
Ask how are you getting on alone
A
Some wander the wilderness
Bm
Some drink cosmopolitans
D		Bm		A
Some cold science, some glean astroplanes
A
I can't tell where the canvas stops
Bm
Homesick as an astronaut
D		Bm		A
Just keep drifting, but still can't explain
D			E			A
How the love we feel we carry inside can be passed
D			E			A
See a brother in the gutter and reach out your hand
	   Bm		E
Ask how are you getting on alone
A
What gauge measures miracles
Bm
Whose heartbeat's electrical
D		Bm		A
We feign sickness with our modern joy
A
But even Western medicine
Bm
It couldn't save Danny Callahan
D		Bm		A
Bad bone marrow, the poor little boy
D			E			A
But the love he feels he carries inside can be passed
D			E			A
He lay still, his mother kissed him goodbye, said comeback
    	Bm		E
Where are you going to alone
    	Bm		E
Where are you going all alone
