By TV Light
TURIN BREAKS
The Optimist
Slow strumming the whole way through...really easy to play!!
Verse 1:
Wine bottle why are you weary?
And why are my eyes so grey?
Semi-circle people are pointing
And staring up to the sky
Chorus:
And the dogs are all gone
And my muesli is mouldy
And the saints they are sinners in their songs
And the crickets they call to their rusted rainbow
I swear if you listen you might just hear our song
Verse 2:
TV light flickers so fiercely
Bridging the gap between my eyes
Outside the rain is tapping my window
A jet trail left hanging in the sky
Chorus:
And the puddles reflect the sky in the morning
Then the pavements lead to another place
With one ear to the west
And then ocean beside me
I swear if you listen you could just hear our song
Electric sensations will not stay with us for long

Beautiful song, hope you enjoy!!
