Verse
|D2 |A |C9 |G |
D2 A
as far as you take me, that's where I believe
C9 G
the realm of soft delusions, floating on the leaves
D2 A
on a distant shoreline, she waves her arms to me
C9 G
as all the thought police, are closing in for sleep
D2 A
the dilly dally, of my bright lit stay
C9
the steam of my misfortunes
G A
has given me the power to be afraid
C9 G
and in my mind I'm everyone
A C9
and in my mind
Pre-Verse

C9 G
Porcelina, Porcelina
Verse
D2 A
In the slipstream of thoughtless thoughts
C9 G
the light of all that's good, the light of all that's true
D2 A
to the fringes gladly, I walk unadorned
C9 G
with gods and their creations, with filth and disease
D2 A
porcelina, she waits for me there
C9
with seashell hissing lullabyes
G A
and wispers fathom deep inside my own
C9 G
hidden thoughts and alibis
A C9
my secret thoughts come alive
Pv3
