	  My first attempt at writing out some chords! The song is easiest if thought of in 6 8 
time. Just think of usually playing the chords on counts 1,2,3,4, and for the muted 
strumming to be on counts 5 and 6. Note, the chords don't line up over the proper words,  
something is screwing up with the font, so just figure out the harmonic rhythm. 

Intro: D D D D 

D D D D 

There are tiers, as in levels, to reality 

G G D D 

On the industrial corner of North 17th Street and Wythe 

A G D Bm 

Two black public high school kids watch a nordic model get photographed 

Bm A G A D D 

To them, she is lunar, impossible, alien life. 


D D D D 

So as a comet might relate to a traffic-stop taxi cab 

G G D D 

Or a Bahamas vacation to a stint in Guantanamo Bay 

A G D Bm 

So as access and privilege relate to their absolute opposites 

Bm A G A D D 

It's the way that these kids and this woman will always relate 



G D 

And it's nobody's fault. Yeah no one's to blame. 

A Em 

We all work through the dark. We all carry the weight. 

Bm D F#m Bm 

Slender shoulders and blindfolds spinning in cycles 

Bm A G A D D D D 

Now, now, now: navigate! 


D D D D 

There are tiers, as in layers, to an experience. 

G G D D 

Through each lens and metric the image warps every day. 

A G D Bm 

I'm either successful, independent, and largely uncompromised 

Bm A G A D D 

Or a non-starter, never-was, has-been since 2008. 



G D 

And it's nobody's fault. Yeah no one's to blame. 

Em A 

We all work through the dark. We all carry the weight. 

Bm D F#m Bm 

Slender shoulders and blindfolds spinning in cycles 

Bm A G A G 

Now, now, now: navigate! 


Instrumental: x2  
G       A       G       Bm    
A    G       D       A             D  D 
  D   D 


D D D D 
There are tears, as in water-works, and they're threatening 

G G D D 
To spoil the negotiated sweetness of my afternoon 

A G D Bm 

I can't answer anything honestly without an asterisk 

Bm A G A D D 

Air-quotes and doublespeak litter the fountain of youth. 



G D 

And if it's nobody's fault, then I'm not to blame 

Em A 

I just work in the dark, I just carry the weight. 

Bm D F#m Bm 

Slender shoulders and blindfolds stranded in cycles 

Bm A G A D D D D 

Now, now, now: navigate! 



End on a D and that's it!
