The Sound Of Us chords by A Lot Like Birds

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                                              D#mb5
Dead stars in jewelry boxes spill as we rush past them, lain to waste
                                                              Chord diagramE MajorE
We can't have everything we want, some things will have to stay
N.C.
There is no beauty in the fire but there is beauty in the
D#mb5
way your eyes locked willingly with death and death turned trembling away
Chord diagramC# minorC#m
Like ice on passing comets we move coldly,
                      D#mb5                                                              Chord diagramF# minorF#m
soundless, through it all but in the wordless space between us there is something like a song
                                                               Chord diagramE MajorE
Each note exists within the silence, our hearts were moving it along
                       D#mb5
You sing the melody so perfect, I can only get it wrong

Chorus:
         Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                          Chord diagramBB
So I beg, just make the silence stop (it's exposed too much)
Chord diagramA augmentedA                                     Chord diagramE MajorE
I think I've had enough (time to let it go)
Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                        Chord diagramBB Chord diagramA augmentedA                                            D#mb5
It's always quiet and that was the sound of us (and it's killing me, I'm close to giving up)

Verse 2:
Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                                          D#mb5
An hourglass is spinning, tumbling right past me through the room
                                        Chord diagramE MajorE
Gravity long since gone, now an airless tomb
                                                  D#mb5
The song that lived between us: here but out of tune
                                                             Chord diagramC# minorC#m
The grains of sand escape the glass, each one paler than the moon
                                                 Chord diagramA augmentedA
Entire planets empty with only dust and rocks to find
                                         Chord diagramF# minorF#m
You escaped from here, leaving this behind
                                                    Chord diagramE MajorE
You found an enemy in sorrow; I made a lover out of mine
                            D#mb5
And now I'm running out of air and Iâm begging

Chorus:
Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                          Chord diagramBB
just make the silence stop (it's exposed too much)
Chord diagramA augmentedA                                     Chord diagramE MajorE
I think I've had enough (time to let it go)
Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                        Chord diagramBB Chord diagramA augmentedA                                           D#mb5
It's always quiet and that was the sound of us (and it's killing me, I'm close to giving up)

Bridge:
Chord diagramC# minorC#m          G#/C
What am I to say?
Chord diagramC# minorC#m                 G#/C
We've been growing apart

Verse 3:
   Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                         D#mb5
My infatuation with you began to slip into the void
                                                         Chord diagramE MajorE
I watched it drift into the cosmos as anguish plagued my mind
                                                  D#mb5
As we began to mirror all the space between the stars, I couldn't take the static
                   Chord diagramC# minorC#m
I needed something more

Bridge 2:
                 Chord diagramA augmentedA      Chord diagramC# minorC#m                Chord diagramBB   Chord diagramA augmentedA                                      Chord diagramE MajorE
It wasnât easy finding something to live for, hearing your voice inside of every sound
Chord diagramC# minorC#m             Chord diagramA augmentedA      Chord diagramC# minorC#m      Chord diagramBB Chord diagramA augmentedA                                         Chord diagramE MajorE
I saw a part of you in everything, took a moment to breathe, then let it run out

Chorus:
Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                          Chord diagramBB
just make the silence stop (it's exposed too much)
Chord diagramA augmentedA                                     Chord diagramE MajorE
I think I've had enough (time to let it go)
Chord diagramC# minorC#m                                        Chord diagramBB Chord diagramA augmentedA                                           D#mb5
