Mexican War Streets Revisited Chords & Lyrics - Mewithoutyou

[INTRO]
[Dm]

[VERSE 1]
[Dm]Though by the path I lead The passing of time and the pouring of tea
[Bb]Are all I've la[F]tely seen[C]
[Dm]Until our temporal bridge be burned Until our anchor stocks hold firm
[Bb]Where the hands of clocks don't t[F]urn, O my soul[C]
[Dm]May our lips remain discreet While your traps are beneath our feet--
but how [Bb]long before our t[F]ails are c[C]aught
by our "free" [Dm]thought?

[CHORUS]
[Bb]Sugar in the cane, c[C]andles [Bb]low
[Gm]Kettle low on the [F]flame for the [Gm]teapot? [F]No
[Bb]Sugar in the cane, c[C]andles [Bb]low [Dm]

[VERSE 2]
On the[F] Streets of Mexican Wars
I battle with the [Eb]memory of a first fight
In our [F]contemptible youth, quoted White Nights
Thinking [Eb]I’d get rid of you, Waited with a stone in my hand
but you were right and Nature [Bb]had another plan
Nature had another [Dm]plan

[CHORUS]
[Bb]Sugar in the cane, c[C]andles l[Bb]ow
On the [Gm]West End [F]Bridge looking [Gm]down at the [F]Ohio
[Bb]Sugar in the cane, c[C]andles l[Bb]ow
You [Gm]panic like a [F]mouse when the [Gm]lights go [F]on
[Bb]Sugar in the cane, c[Dm]andles low
