Intro:

C  F  G  F     ( x4 )



Verse 1:
C             F
  I tried to tell you
    G                  F            
I didn’t know how to stay
        C            F    
You believe she can see through
 G                      F 
Cutting at the silent clay
     C                  F 
A relief, beckon deep blue
G                      F    
Fettered in the magnet sun
         C           F 
Eat the gun as it feeds you
 G                  F   
Spitting up the oxygen
       C   F G F  
Once again        
       C   F G F  
Once again
Verse 2:
        C          F 
Once again, empty horses
 G                         F  
Gallop through the violet door
        C             F 
Follow red, crooked courses
  G                      F  
Shadows on the moonlit floor
      C               F  
O my stars, winged creatures
 G                    F 
Gathering in silken height
          C           F     G  F
Like the last human teachers    

Verse 3:
        C             F 
Once again, w? must bleed new
G                  F
Even as the hours shak?
          C             F  
Crystal blood like a dream true
   G                       F 
A ripple in the wound and wake
        C           F    
You believe
I believe too
      G                     F 
That you are the river of light
       C             F 
Who I love, that I cling to
        G                  F 
In the belly of the empty night

Chorus:
          C    Am           G           F 
From the 31st floor of the simulation swarm
           C           Am   
With the drone of fluorescence
          G               F  
Flicker, fever, fill the form
        Dm               Am   
With a warm gush, now I wanna touch
          C             F 
Like we never could before
 C               Am                G               F  
I’d fly to you tomorrow
I’m not fighting in this war
          C               Am       
I wanna drop my arms and take your arms
     G                F  
And walk you to the shore

Verse 4:
C      F        G                 F 
  I remember building an energy shield
          C            F    
In your room, like a temple
 G                        F  
Swallows in the windless field
      C                F      
Very thin, with your mother
 G                     F  
Tall as a pale green tree
      C               F  
Very wild, bright as winter
 G                   F   
Rising with a prism key
        C         F  
And a child to deliver
G                         F   
Tangled in the blood and vine
     C            F    G  F
The first little angel

Verse 5:
C         F      G                   F  
  Little Andy, soft in your newborn skin
      C           F      G                F       
Only one, little Andy, will you return again?
     C              F  
I believe we can renew
     G                F  
And you could be my brother
       C             F             G                 F                            
Once again, fall asleep with our backs against each other
      C           F       
You believe
I believe too
      G                     F          C             
That you are the river of light who I love
        F              G                   F  
That I sing to in the belly of the empty night


Chorus:
          C    Am           G           F 
From the 31st floor of the simulation swarm
           C           Am   
With the drone of fluorescence
          G               F  
Flicker, fever, fill the form
        Dm               Am   
With a warm gush, now I wanna touch
          C             F 
Like we never could before
 C               Am                G               F  
I’d fly to you tomorrow
I’m not fighting in this war
          C               Am       
I wanna drop my arms and take your arms
     G                F  
And walk you to the shore
     C            Am              G                F
I’d fly to you tomorrow
I’m not fighting in this war

I wanna drop my arms and take your arms
