Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
Eb MajorEb       DbDb       F minorFm   AbAb
Light ended the night, but the song remained
AbAb           Eb MajorEb
And I was hiding by the stair, half here
   DbDb       F minorFm    AbAb
Half there, past the lashing rain
AbAb              Eb MajorEb         F minorFm  G minorGm   AbAb
And as the skye: would petal white, old innocent lies came to mind
   Bb majorBb     AbAb           Eb MajorEb
As we stood, congregated, at the firing line


Verse 2:
Eb MajorEb       DbDb       F minorFm   AbAb
Night ended the fight, but the song remained
AbAb           Eb MajorEb
And so I headed to the wall
        DbDb     F minorFm  AbAb
Turned tail to call to the new domain
AbAb          Eb MajorEb          F minorFm
As if in the sight of sea, you're suddenly free
     G minorGm    AbAb
But it's all the same...
    Bb majorBb   AbAb    Eb MajorEb     AbAb
Oh, but I can hear you, loud in the center
Bb majorBb    AbAb     Eb MajorEb    AbAb      Eb MajorEb   F minorFm  G minorGm  AbAb
Aren't we made to be crowded together, like leaves?

Eb MajorEb  F minorFm  G minorGm  AbAb
Oooh

Refrain:
   GbGb  F minorFm      GbGb     F minorFm
Was I too slow? Did you change overnight?
    AbAb
Second son, on the other line...


Verse 3:
Eb MajorEb        DbDb    F minorFm  AbAb
Now, back in our town as a castaway
AbAb         Eb MajorEb         DbDb      F minorFm    AbAb
I'm reminded of the time it all fell in line, on the third of May
AbAb       Eb MajorEb         F minorFm     G minorGm   AbAb
As if it were designed, painted in sand to be washed away
    Bb majorBb   AbAb    Eb MajorEb     AbAb
Oh, but I can hear you, loud in the center
Bb majorBb    AbAb     Eb MajorEb    AbAb      Eb MajorEb   F minorFm  G minorGm  AbAb
Aren't we made to be crowded together, like leaves?

Eb MajorEb  F minorFm  G minorGm  AbAb
Oooh

Refrain:
   GbGb  F minorFm      GbGb     F minorFm
Was I too slow? Did you change overnight?
    AbAb             EbmEbm
Second son, for the second time...


Verse 4:
Eb MajorEb
Can I be light and free?
   F minorFm                 GbGb
If I lead you through the fury will you call to me?
    F minorFm   DbDb    GbGb        Eb MajorEb
And is all that I might owe you carved on ivory?

Refrain 3:
  DbDb    Eb MajorEb    F minorFm G minorGm
But all will fade. All I say. All I needed
As a flash in the eye, I wouldn't deny, all receded

Verse 5:
Life unfolds in pools of gold
I am only owed this shape if I make a line to hold
To be held within one's self is deathlike, oh I know

Refrain 4:
But all will be, for mine and me, as we make it
And the size of the fray, can't take it away, they won't make it

Outro:
I was a fool
Crime after crime to confess to
But I hold the fleet angel, she'll bless you
Hold fast to the wing. Hold fast to the wing
