"Kid Oneida"



Intro: D  D/F#    D/C#     C      X4



Am7         Am

many moons ago

Am7      Am          E

I had a crazy crazy dream

           Am7            Am        Am7

about the space that lies between

     Am                 E

what is and what should be

      C              Cmaj7

there was no moon to light that dune

Am7      Am          E

just an empty crater hole

        Am7             Am

though yellow bars and candy stars

Am7           Am       E

hung from a horizontal pole



I took a walk around

just to pass some time

I met a silver bullet

who spoke to me in rhyme

said "put one foot here, and one foot there

and leave the rest to fate

believe in half of what you see, that leaves only half of me

to contemplate"



Repeat intro , jam on verse



a year into the journey

I met a girl along the way

well she stood me up and sat me down

and promised she would stay

you know me, I had to see

if she would keep her word

to my dismay she flew away

like tried and tortured bird



Rpeat intro jam on verse



now time seems like a tunnel

void of generosity

a sick and twisted funnel

on the edge of sanity

and here I stand a broken man

in a dream where wicked men

call me Kid Oneida

as I pray for it to end
