Extraction Point
[Intro]
G D C Bm A# F D
[Verse 1]
D
You never learn to tell the difference between
C Bm
The probable projections and the best parts of the dream
A# F
The fragments that stick with you, the ones you really feel
D
Those parts aren't real
D G
But high in the cold Midwestern air
D
They shimmer before us there
G
Almost out of reach but not quite
Bm
Stay up thinking about it all night
A
Waited so long for days like these
G
I'm tired of living on my knees
[Chorus]
D G
Pull your hair back tight, head right for the extraction point
F#m Bm E G A D
And if you don't hear from me let them all go free
[instrumental interlude]
G D C Bm A# F D
[Verse 2]
D
I'm on the Kennedy Expressway at dawn
C
Don't know where we got this car from
Bm
I'm driving with the fog lights on
A# F
The angles you don't plan for, the things you might have missed
D
Those things exist
D G
But under the waxing winter sun
D
I feel like we're almost gone
G
Just pick a lane and drive right through
Bm
Headed off to freedom with you
A
Dreams of the future up in the front of my mind
G
Leave a couple dozen bodies behind
[Chorus]
D G
Pull your hair back tight, head right for the extraction point
F#m Bm E G A D
And if you don't hear from me let them all go free
[Outro]
G D G D
