In every movie I watch from the '50s there's only one thought
F7M
that swirls around my head now
C
and that's that everyone there on the screen, yeah, everyone there
F7M
on the screen, well, they're all dead now, they're all dead now.
C
And it ain't easy living above and I can't help but keep falling in love
F7M Am** G**
with bones and ashes, with bones and ashes.
C
And when the color is too bold and bright I'm daydreaming in black and white
F7M Am** G**
until it passes, until it passes.
Am** Dm** C** F
I wanna know the measure from here to forever.
Am** Dm** C** F
And I wanna feel the pressure of God or whatever.
C
Oh, these days it's so hard to relax, you gotta hold a gun to my back
F7M Am** G**
to make me smile, to make me smile.
C
And the only way I seem to cope is by trying to hold onto hope
F7M Am** G**
if just for a while, if just for a while.
Am** Dm** C** F
I wanna know the measure from here to forever.
Am** Dm** C** F
And I wanna feel the pressure of God or whatever.
Am** Dm** C F
Now it seems more than ever there's no hands on the levers
Am** Dm** C F
and I wanna feel the pressure of God or whatever.

Only rollers keep rolling while the searchers keep scrolling.
Am** Dm** C** F
I wanna know the measure from here to forever.
Am** Dm** C** F
And I wanna feel the pressure of God or whatever.
Am** Dm** C F
Now it seems more than ever there's no hands on the levers
Am** Dm** C F
and I wanna feel the pressure of God or whatever,

or whatever.
