Key: A
Introduction: Am C7M Am C7M Bbm Cm Bbm Cm A7M
Am C7M
Sleep as the goer
Am C7M
The bridge that watches the light speed through
Bbm Cm
And cries while the spirit stumbles
Bbm Cm A7M
The inside missile for the protection of you
Am C7M
Maybe it's silent
Am C7M
The voice can't bear anymore strain
Bbm Cm
But speaks without even knowing
Bbm Cm
And streams outside in the direction of truth
Gm C Dm
There's no reason there's no secret to decode
Gm C Dm G
If you can't save it, leave it dying on the road
Gm C Dm
Wide open arms can feel so cold
C
So cold
Em F#
Feel so cold
A4
Balance the books, the ledges, the loons
A4 F#m
The disappointed look on the faces
E
That squint at the moon
C#m Bm
Let's see it with shadows enhance
C#m D
And then vote to decide who'll advance
A4
Silver jet plane, making a turn
F#m E
Exciting the brain that expects it to crash and then burn
C#m Bm
It's not the life lesson I'd've guessed
C#m D
If you're conscious you must be depressed
A4 C#m
Or at least cynical
Em
But someone might still eat the steaks
F#
Even if they're tough
D
Spending the day
C#m
Chewing the fat
Bm E A4
Floating away isn't rough but it's not enough
A4
Oh marianne, pass me the joint the sandpaper's tan
C#m Bm
And london's a cratch on the lens
C#m D
It's over before it begins
A4
Silk 'round her neck falls down to her shoulders
Fm E
The older I get, the more I suspect there's a trick
C#m Bm
But really there's no trip at all
C#m D
That doesn't result in a fall
A4 C#m
Or a faltering
Em
But something could spit out the bait
F#
Even if it's real
D
Rolling away
C#m
Missing a spoke
Bm E A4 C#m
Close to the ground like a wheel but it's not a joke
D
Holding the line
C#m
Clutching the phone
Bm E A4
Nobly wasting the night, but it isn't right
F#
It's not right
D
Smelling for blood
C#m
Praying for rain
Bm E A4 A
Running away isn't rough, but it's not enough
Eb Gm Cm Fm Cm
The low tide is telling me, when it's over
Bb Dm Gm
To breathe in everything exposed
Eb Gm Cm Fm Cm
And comes back to cover me with a blanket
Bb Dm Gm
Being here's always changing tunes
Dm G7 Am Am/G Em A7
The empty sky surrounds me but I can't see at all
Dm G7 Am Am/G Em A7
Wide open arms can feel so cold
Dm G7 Am Am/G Em A7
And you can sit beside me and tell me what it's worth
Dm G7 Am Am/G Em A7
But I hope I die before I get sold
Dm G7 Am Am/G Em A7
I hope I die before I get sold
Dm G7 Am Am/G Em A7
I'd rather die before I get sold
Dm C G
If you find the soul that you lost
E Am
Frozen in a starry void
Dm C G
Take it within and hope the sight of blood
C7M
Can will signs of life to return
Dm C G
Back to the way that it was
E Am
Long before it made a noise
Dm C G
To keep on quietly reminding you
C7M
What's never created or destroyed
Am C7M
Wake as the swell peaks
Am C7M
The close-outs drowning the birds with roars
Bbm Cm
And howls scare the new unkindness
Bbm Cm A7M
That picks and laughs at the carrion scene
Am C7M
Forces you see breath can
Am C7M
Always go into hiding
Bbm Cm
And wait 'til it passes over
Bbm Cm
Or stay far gone for all eternity
