"Secrets of the Stars" - The Milk Carton Kids


Capo 2 (standard tuning)

(A minorAm - Am7Am7 Fade-in)

A minorAm               E7sus4E7sus4  E7E7
The only time I ever heard the voice of God
      FF       C majorC      E7sus4E7sus4      E7E7
Was in the silence of the night in the arms of the one I love
DmDm       G+G     C majorC Cmaj9/B A minorAm
Staring at the ceiling up above
   G+G        E7sus4E7sus4  E MajorE    A minorAm
Like it contained the secrets of the stars

A minorAm             E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
Any time I ever woke up in a dream
FF         C majorC      E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
I saw my shadow there staring back at me
DmDm       G+G     C majorC Cmaj9/B A minorAm
Moving through the walls and wondering
    G+G     E7sus4E7sus4  E MajorE   A minorAm
As all the world rose up inside of me


  FF        E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
And I long to hear the melody
   A minorAm Gadd4 FF    E minorEm  DmDm
That one time played inside my mind
  DmDm       E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
And to love another helplessly
  A minorAm  Gadd4 FF  E minorEm  FF   E minorEm  E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
So breathing feels like putting out a fire


A minorAm              E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
Any time my life flashes in front of me
FF        C majorC      E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
I see a child there as if on a screen
DmDm       G+G    C majorC Cmaj9/B A minorAm
Standing in the shadows flickering
    G+G  E7sus4E7sus4  E MajorE   A minorAm
For a moment I know what it means


**Joey's chords during Kenneth's solo
    C majorC - E minorEm - A minorAm


A minorAm              E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
All this time I lived inside a memory
FF         C majorC      E7sus4E7sus4          E7E7
Daylight creeping in through a crack in the weathered seams
DmDm      G+G    C majorC Cmaj9/B A minorAm
Severing the ties and trembling
G+G       E7sus4E7sus4  E MajorE   A minorAm
Losing all the voices in the wind


  FF        E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
And I long to hear the melody
   A minorAm Gadd4 FF    E minorEm  DmDm
That one time played inside my mind
  DmDm       E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
And to love another helplessly
  A minorAm  Gadd4 FF  E minorEm  FF   E minorEm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
So breathing feels like putting out a fire
