The Hollow In Retrospect chords by Corey Kilgannon

Intro

D A D Bm D A D

verse 1
             D
They told me drink till she's pretty enough
        Bm
Drink until she's the wine on your tongue
           E                      Em
Kiss to forget, sleep when you're dead
                  G             A
Love while you're young and it matters

verse 2
             D
They told me breathe her like second-hand smoke
        Bm
Let her stain your hands and seep in your clothes
           E                         Em
Dance to remind yourself that you're dying
               G           A
And honey that I'm no different

Chorus
                   Bm         G             D
Cause we're always waiting to kiss till the sun's down
      Bm        G               D
Never looking into each other's eyes
               Bm          A          F#      Bm
If you are the hollow then I'll be an echoing sound
          G            Gm           D
If you're darkness I'm drawn to the night
   Bm
night

Interlude
D Bm

verse 3
       D
Are we nothing but swings at a park
     Bm
Just kids hooking up in the dark
            E                      Em
Hiding from wars we claim to fight for
     A
One another

verse 4
            D
You're like fireflies trapped in a jar
         Bm
You're a prison without any bars
             E
You make me alone
                   Em
You're soft like a stone
              A
Hitting the water

Chorus
                   Bm         G             D
Cause we're always waiting to kiss till the sun's down
      Bm        G               D
Never looking into each other's eyes
               Bm          A          F#      Bm
If you are the hollow then I'll be an echoing sound
          G            Gm             Bm
If you're darkness I'm drawn to the night
              E        Em
Drawn to the night
          Bm
Drawn toooo the night
       E Em
ni-i-i-i-ight

Verse 5
     D
I am still just as empty tonight
      Bm
I was fucking you so you would not ask me why
       E                        Em
I'm so sad, if I still love you back
            G  A
Darling I'm sorry

Chorus
               Bm        G          D
That we always waited to kiss until sundown
        Bm         G                D
I could never look straight in your eyes
            Bm         A           F#       Bm
You are the hollow and now I write echoless songs
           G             Gm           D
You're the darkness where I lost the light
