Subject: CRD: Abstract Plain — Frank Black
Song : (I want to live on an) Abstract Plain
Artist: Frank Black
Album : Teenager of the Year
Intro: C#m F# E x 4
E F# G#
I’ve had it with this town
I’m building a frame
E F# B E
I never saw those shifting skies
A place to put my ten yard stare
E F# G#
I never saw the ground
Thinking of that paint
Am F#
Or the sunset rise
Painted in plein-air
Am E F# C#m
I want to live on an abstract plain
C#m Am C#m
I need a new address
Am C#m
I want some new terrain
Tell me I’m not insane
Am C#m
Is or north or south
Is it up or down
E F# C#m
I want to live on an abstract plain
E F# G#
I could sit on the roof
E F# B E
On top of that abstract house
E F# G#
See my abstract view
Am F#
An abstract mouse
Am E F# C#m
