Abm

[VERSE ONE]
E                      Abm
It's not the energy reeling
          B                 Abm
Nor the lines in your face
             E            Abm
Nor the clouds on the ceiling
            E       Abm
Nor the clouds in space

E                         Abm
It's not the phone on the table
          B             Abm
Nor the bed in the earth
          E            Abm
Nor the bed in the stable
       E           Abm
Nor your stable words

 E                       Abm
It's not the formless being
         B           Abm
Nor the cry in the air
          E           Abm
Nor the boy I'm seeing
           E            Abm
With her long black hair

E                      Abm
It's not the open weaving
           B       Abm
Nor the furnace glow
           E          Abm
Nor the blood of you bleeding
         E         Abm
As you try to let go

[CHORUS]
E
It's not the room
E
Not beginning
Abm
Not the crowd
Abm
Not winning

B
Not the planet
B
Not spinning
E
Not a ruse
E
Not heat

Abm
Not the fire lapping up the creek
B
Not food
B
Not to eat

[VERSE TWO]
E             Abm
Not the meat of your thigh
           B       Abm
Nor your spine tattoo
               E     Abm
Nor your shimmery eye
          E       Abm
Nor the wet of the dew

E                      Abm
It's not the warm illusion
          B           Abm
Nor the crack in the plate
          E          Abm
Nor the breath of confusion
             E        Abm
Nor the starkness of slate

[VERSE THREE]
E                      Abm
Not what you really wanted
          B              Abm
Nor the mess in your purse
        E           Abm
Nor the bed that is haunted
        E                 Abm
With the blanket of thirst

     E                Abm
It's not the hunger revealing
        B                Abm
Nor the ricochet in the cave
         E             Abm
Nor the hand that is healing
             E        Abm
Nor the nameless grave

[CHORUS]
E
It's not the room
E
Not beginning
Abm
Not the crowd
Abm
Not winning

B
Not the planet
B

E
Not a ruse

Abm
Not the fire lapping up the creek
B
Not food
B
Not to eat

[CHORUS]
E
Not to die
E
Not dying
Abm
Not to laugh
Abm
Not lying

B
Not the vacant wilderness vying
E
Not the room
E
Not beginning
Abm
Not the crowd
Abm
Not winning
B
Not the planet
B
Not spinning
