Going Blank

Lyrics and Chords

Eb                      Ab

Suck and blow

Eb                      Ab

Let the river flow

There’s nothing else to do

Gmin                                 Ab

All the smiling horses know

Lyrics

I’m going blank
By the riverbank
Where the lilacs drink the moon
Suck and blow
Let the river flow
There’s nothing else to do

All the smiling horses know
As they go round and round again

I’m going blank
My heart has drank my will dry
I just can’t get through
Suck and blow
Let the river flow
As time goes tripping into the blue

All the smiling horses know
As they go round and round again

I’m going blank by the riverbank
There’s nothing else to do
Suck and blow
And in the rivers flow..
Everything I ever knew

All the smiling horses know
As they go round and round again

I’m going blank
