Dead Melodies lyrics

Where will you go when this day is over A gambler's purse lays on the road Straight to your door Snakes have gone crazy tonight Winding their way out of sight A laugh, a joke a sentiment wasted Seasons of strangers they've come and gone Doldrums are pounding Cheapskates are clowning this town Who could disown themselves now Engineer, slow down this old train Cinders and chaff laugh at the moon Night birds will cackle Rotting like apples on trees Sending their dead melodies to me Capo 5th fret, arpeggiating chords Where will you go when this day is over A gambler's purse lays on the road Straight to your door Snakes have gone crazy tonight Winding their way out of sight A laugh, a joke a sentiment wasted Seasons of strangers they've come and gone Doldrums are pounding Cheapskates are clowning this town Who could disown themselves now Engineer, slow down this old train Cinders and chaff laugh at the moon Night birds will cackle Rotting like apples on trees Sending their dead melodies to me
