Verse 1

               D     Dm              Am
We stopped for coffee in the redwood forest

G     D        Am      G         D         Am
Giant dripping leaves, spoons of powdered cream

Am          D       Dm             Am
I wanted to kiss you, but I wasn't sure how

G          Dm  Am
Like those indians

G           Dm      Am
Lost in the rain forest

Am        D            Dm            Am
Forced to drag burning wood wherever they went

G        D       Am    G      D       E    E7
They all had forgotten how to start a fire


Chorus

C           Am           E      E7
This is why people OD on pills

    C    Am                   E       E7
And jump from the golden gate bridge

C                Am         E
Anything to feel weightless again

Verse 2

Am              D      Dm                   Am
Those poor lost indians, when the white man found them

G         D   Am
Most died of TB

    G    D      Am
The rest went insane

Am       D       Dm               Am
In our motel room you're drinking slice and gin

G       D    Am
Reading Moby Dick

G      D     Am
On the other bed

Am           D         Dm          Am
Remember the first time we slept together?

G        D       Am
You said it felt like

G        D          Am    E
When you learned to float


Chorus

C           Am           E      E7
This is why people OD on pills

    C    Am                   E       E7
And jump from the golden gate bridge

C                Am         E
Anything to feel weightless again
