Artist: Calexico Song: Service and Repair Album: Hot Rail E7sus4: E:-0- B:-0- D:-0- E:-0- On the outskirts of expansion Looking out from Blueprint Peak The flow is flooding of urban settlers Panning through rivers running dry Numbers roll on in smiling a lottery grin As sadness blurs the eye It’s just a matter of time in the moving on It’s just a matter of time before the moving on Doesn’t take much time for plans to go wrong Chase another ghost of a chance In the shadows of chainstore ghost towns Where no one walks the streets at night The silent nation hooked on medication Stares into a blue flickering light The young drift off alone and the old waste away And the prospects keep looking up But the line is getting long on the lost highway The line’s getting longer on the lost highway Doesn’t take much time for plans to go astray Chase another ghost of a chance (instrumental) like verse They say deep down inside Lie properties of a healing kind If so better come around soon Do a little bit of service and repair Do a little bit of service and repair Do a little more service and repair Doesn’t take much time for plans to change And offer up another chance For a little bit more service and repair A little bit more service and repair Doesn’t take much time for plans to change And offer up another chance At sowing the dreams that suited for both soul and soil
