Tarnish

I found a silver bracelet that I bought for my first wife Found it tossed into that box from when I lived another life I found a silver tooth that got punched out when I was drunk Back when every night was wild before I lived here like a monk I found a silver bullet I had stashed here in my safe Behind 16 grand in cash in a box marked "just in case" I found your silver train between the cushions of the couch And my knees gave out It's coming and it's gonna be a long night When you find tarnish on the relics from my past lives I hope it doesn't pull the glimmer out of your eyes Take it easy on me I found a golden ticket but never read that little print I had golden opportunities leave pockets full of lint Every golden calf I worshiped melted in the sun I praise the golden arches, pay my bills, and load my guns I found "Golden Slumbers" in my old man's forty-fives Silly rabbit keeping rock and roll and Jesus Christ alive I found a golden goose here and I squeeze her neck for songs I never got a golden record I guess the melodies are wrong It's coming and it's gonna be a long night When you find tarnish on the relics from my past lives I hope it doesn't pull the glimmer out of your eyes Take it easy on me Take it easy on me Take it easy on me I found this golden state but man it turned into a grind I stood on that Golden Gate and almost left it all behind Watched our golden paradise wither in a drought And my knees gave out It's coming and it's gonna be a long night When you find tarnish on the relics from my past lives I hope it doesn't pull the glimmer out of your eyes Take it easy on me
