She's a Jar

She's a jar (Wilco) C

6+ 4 4+
6+ 4 4+

She's a jar
With a heavy lid
My pop quiz kid
A sleepy kisser 
With feelings hid
She begs me not to miss her

6+ 4 4+
6+ 4 4+

She says forever
To light a fuse 
We could use 
A hand full of wheel 
And a day off
And a bruised road
However you might feel
Tonight is real

When I forget how to talk I sing
Won't you please
Bring that flash to shine
And turn my eyes red
Unless they close
When you click
And my face gets sick
Stuck
Like a question unposed

chorus:
Just climb aboard
The tracks of a train's arm
In my fragile family tree
And watch me float inches above
The people under me
 
9+ 8 7 6+ 6  7
9+ 8 7 6+ 6  7

Please beware the quiet front yard
I warned you 
Before there were water skies
I warned you not to drive
Dry your eyes you poor devil

Are there really ones like these
The ones I dream
Float like leaves
And freeze to spread skeleton wings
I passed through before I knew you

I believe it's just because
Daddy's payday is not enough
Oh I believe it's all because
Daddy's payday is not enough

chorus

9+ 8 7 6+ 6  7
9+ 8 7 6+ 6  7
9+ 8 7 6+ 6  7
9+ 8 7 6+ 6  7

She's a jar
With a heavy lid
My pop quiz kid
A sleepy kisser
A pretty war 
My feelings hid
You know she begs me not to hit her
