Glass Harmonica chords by Arms

Intro: E

E
in the cold light of dawn
 B                 F#
awoke in an empty room
         E
where everything found was lost
               B              F#
like a loose tooth, like a teaspoon
E
someone stole all the clocks
B                      F#
now we can't tell the time
    E
i noticed you staring up
              B
at the night sky, at the night

    F#              E
but all i see is strange
           F#
as dark dissolves into day
           E
and the curtain falls
               F#
on the primal scene
                      E
but all you feel is breath
          F#
playing scales on your neck
            E
from the crooked song
            F#
in a minor key


Dbm           E       B
wait at the winter?s edge
            Ebm   Dbm
where we'll meet again
           E       B        Ebm
and we'll see our old lives come true
Dbm          E       B
fingers on fragile times
        Ebm      Dbm
till we lose our minds
         E        B         Ebm
and we break the bonds that keep you in line

Dbm  Ebm  E  B

E
someone excites your nerves
B                   F#
defuses your every mine
E
someone?s been throwing rocks
         B               F#
at the beehive, at the beehive
E
someone tampered with our brakes
   B                  F#
someone glued up the locks
          E
we were weaving in and out of lanes
             B
coming full stop
          F#
on the blacktop
                     E
when the pressure dropped

oooooh
B
oooooh
E
oooooh
B
oooooh


E
someone broke all the beds
B                     F
now we don't need to rest
E
our glowing bodies never sleep
                         B
and we can't leave this mess


F#                 E
but all we do is stand
             F#
with heavy heads in the sand
           E                           F#
cause the day is long, and the light recedes
                   E
but all i ask is please
               F#
be strong and right, emily
          E                       F#
and i'll play along, long as you need


Dbm           E       B
wait at the winter?s edge
             Ebm   Dbm
where you'll understand
             E       B       Ebm
there?s a freezing soul who needs you
Dbm        E        B
sing me a slow sad song
          Ebm      Dbm
till my hearing?s gone
           E         B         Ebm
and we'll break the ties that lead you
Dbm          E       B
screaming i had no choice
        Ebm     Dbm
till i lose my voice
          E         B      Ebm                A
and the sound of thunder bleeds through the noise

B  A  B  A  B  A  B  A
