Chords with lyrics
Intro: E MajorE
E MajorE
in the cold light of dawn
BB F#F#
awoke in an empty room
E MajorE
where everything found was lost
BB F#F#
like a loose tooth, like a teaspoon
E MajorE
someone stole all the clocks
BB F#F#
now we can?t tell the time
E MajorE
i noticed you staring up
BB
at the night sky, at the night
F#F# E MajorE
but all i see is strange
F#F#
as dark dissolves into day
E MajorE
and the curtain falls
F#F#
on the primal scene
E MajorE
but all you feel is breath
F#F#
playing scales on your neck
E MajorE
from the crooked song
F#F#
in a minor key
DbmDbm E MajorE BB
wait at the winter?s edge
EbmEbm DbmDbm
where we?ll meet again
E MajorE BB EbmEbm
and we?ll see our old lives come true
DbmDbm E MajorE BB
fingers on fragile times
EbmEbm DbmDbm
till we lose our minds
E MajorE BB EbmEbm
and we break the bonds that keep you in line
DbmDbm EbmEbm E MajorE BB
E MajorE
someone excites your nerves
BB F#F#
defuses your every mine
E MajorE
someone?s been throwing rocks
BB F#F#
at the beehive, at the beehive
E MajorE
someone tampered with our brakes
BB F#F#
someone glued up the locks
E MajorE
we were weaving in and out of lanes
BB
coming full stop
F#F#
on the blacktop
E MajorE
when the pressure dropped
oooooh
BB
oooooh
E MajorE
oooooh
BB
oooooh
E MajorE
someone broke all the beds
BB FF
now we don?t need to rest
E MajorE
our glowing bodies never sleep
BB
and we can?t leave this mess
F#F# E MajorE
but all we do is stand
F#F#
with heavy heads in the sand
E MajorE F#F#
cause the day is long, and the light recedes
E MajorE
but all i ask is please
F#F#
be strong and right, emily
E MajorE F#F#
and i?ll play along, long as you need
DbmDbm E MajorE BB
wait at the winter?s edge
EbmEbm DbmDbm
where you?ll understand
E MajorE BB EbmEbm
there?s a freezing soul who needs you
DbmDbm E MajorE BB
sing me a slow sad song
EbmEbm DbmDbm
till my hearing?s gone
E MajorE BB EbmEbm
and we'll break the ties that lead you
DbmDbm E MajorE BB
screaming i had no choice
EbmEbm DbmDbm
till i lose my voice
E MajorE BB EbmEbm A augmentedA
and the sound of thunder bleeds through the noise
BB A augmentedA BB A augmentedA BB A augmentedA BB A augmentedA
