Verse:
Em                 A        Em          ASometimes there is someone, someone who knows you
Em               A            Bm C      But when you are sad there is no one

Em             A        Em          AWe're on a red bicycle, rollin' and rollin'
Em                     A                    Bm       CI'm quicksilver, I'm a dealmaker, don't you cross me once

And I left the sober people with their cold hearts


Verse:
Em          A       Em                       ANothin' can hold me to this earth that don’t own me
Em          A           Bm       CAnd I don't know if I'm dirty or clean

Em           A         Em      AWell I was a sailboat, I was a sailor
Em          A           Bm    CAnd I was a firecracker exploding
