get in the mind shaft

Jack White

When I was young
I went to an abandoned house
In one of the rooms
I found an old piano
I didn't know how to play piano
So I just fumbled across the keys
Pressed the pedals down
I sat there for hours
Trying to understand how to
Construct a melody
My brain to my finger tips
And after a while
I hit three notes together
At the same time

I've been walking down by the river
For hours
Past sailors, that have
Less tattoos than the average teenager
There's a man fishing
And selling what he catches
A dollar a head
I've been sitting near him
For a long time now
And he's yet to look over
I have a strange feeling
That I know this man
That it's me
I think it's me

Let's try it
Can you hear me now?
Am I invisible to you?
Out of the blue now
Out of the blue now
Can you hear me now?
Am I invisible to you?
Get in the mind shaft

Can it be? Can it be?
Can it be? Can it be?
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah

Can you hear me now?
Get in the mind shaft
Get in the mind shaft
Come inside
Come inside
Can you hear me now?
Deep inside me, now

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah

Get in the mind shaft
Can you hear me now?
