Chords with lyrics
Verse:
A augmentedA
Children play softly around the explosions
A minorAm
Tearing up shrapnel, wrapped up in clothing
FF
And I am left waiting for the doctor to sell
C majorC E7E7
Ten thousand one hundreths, it's all just a blur
A augmentedA
Tear at the sheets but there's no one alive
A minorAm
The static rings true and your head can't survive
FF
Alone in your castle on the 54th floor
C majorC E7E7
Can't you hear me calling your name?
Chorus:
DmDm C majorC
Yet, the hardest truth to believe
G+G A minorAm
That all is worth, and all that is gained
FF D MajorD
Could never replace the most beautiful things
C majorC E7E7
That brought you so close to my heart
Verse 2:
A augmentedA
Oh heaven's the place where you're no longer waiting
A minorAm
For someone to say that this day turned to poison
FF
Roses won't make her feel better tonight
C majorC E7E7
Now look what you've done to the sky
A augmentedA
Brassy like queens, mad men in corsets
A minorAm
Paul is waiting for someone to get bent
FF
Chasing the arrows, they swoon while they fly
C majorC E7E7
Can't you hear me calling your name?
Chorus:
DmDm C majorC
Yet, the hardest truth to believe
G+G A minorAm
That all is worth, and all that is gained
FF D MajorD
Could never replace the most beautiful things
C majorC E7E7
That brought you so close to my heart
DmDm C majorC
People wandering the same damn old plains
G+G A minorAm
Waiting for wisdom to shout out their names
FF D MajorD
But never exchanging a look or a thrill
C majorC E7E7
Would shoot you straight dead in the heart
E7E7
Of beautiful moments...

Waiting to guide you back home
