TABLES ON THE MORNING FLOOR

[Intro] [Piano] (oh) [Verse 1] Coins on the floor like startled teeth Dust in the rafters and lies beneath I came for shelter, found a market heat Hands counting silver where knees should meet [Chorus] (turn it over) turn it over, let the noise fall down (leave it bare) leave it bare till the truth is found [Verse 2] Cages of feathers and a cedar smell Faces gone busy where the poor once knelt I did not shout, I just touched the wood And the whole room heard what silence could [Chorus] (turn it over) turn it over, let the noise fall down (leave it bare) leave it bare till the truth is found [Bridge] [Tenor Sax] Not every ruin starts with fire Some begin when hunger is for hire [Final Chorus] (turn it over) turn it over, let the noise fall down (leave it bare) leave it bare till the truth is found
