Small Talk Relations Tift Merritt
INTRO: C Am C Am C Am Em G C (2x)
I skipped a stone and[Am] watched it go[C]
The arc and then the [Am]undertow[C]
Thinking a day is[Am] something like a [Em]prayer[G]
So [C]much to ask,[Am] you start it soft[C]
Then the weighted [Am]locks come off[C]
In the end,[Am] you just hope some[Em]one's there[G]
CHORUS:
'Cause all these[C] small [Em]talk re[F]lations
Lord, there ain't [C]no[Em]thing for [F]real
Don't nobody [C]here [Em]at [Bb]all know [F]
The way that I[C] feel[Bb] [F]
[C]There's no one to [Am]answer to[C]
Just the dark and [Am]me and you[C]
And all the angels[Am] stand around just [Em]wishing[G]
[C]For a drag there [Am]of your smoke[C]
A taste of skin, a [Am]sip of hope[C]
To raise their skirts [Am]up where no [Em]words are ris[G]ing
CHORUS:
'Cause all these[C] small [Em]talk re[F]lations
Lord, there ain't [C]no[Em]thing for [F]real
Don't nobody [C]here [Em]at [Bb]all know [F]
The way that I[C] feel[Bb] [F] [G]
BRIDGE:
Workmen in the street below[Am]
Softly play a radio[G]
A hymn of static [Am]through the traffic[Bb]
The crowd just turns to leave[F]
The secret current underneath [Em]
Cannot be heard above the [G]racket
CHORUS:
Of all of these [C]small [Em]talk re[F]lations
I can't hear [C]one[Em] thing for [F]real
Don't nobody [C]here [Em]at [Bb]all know [F]
The way that I[C] feel,[Bb] oh [F]oh
OUTRO:
[C] O[Bb]h o[F]h
[C] O[Bb]oh o[F]oh [C]
