Cm         G#     G       F#       F
The embers of the saint inside of you

Cm          G#     G       F#       F           
Are growing as I'm bathing in your glow

Cm        G#       G               F#     F
I'm swallowing the poison of your flower

Cm          G#     G      F#    F
And hanging on the rising of my low



B            A#                B
Colorful and falling from your mouth

               A#         B
Like a painted fever in recoil

                        D#m
Like a lie without the pain



     D              D#m
On a pillow of your bones

       D               F#      
I will lay across the stones

        Bm              A#                  
Of your shore until the tide comes crawling

D#m         D             D#m
Throw my pillow on the fire

        D             F#      
Make my bed under the eye

        Bm             A#                  Cm (intro riff)
Of your moon until the tide comes crawling back



Cm       G#       G      F#     F
A waning hand on silver granite waves

Cm       G#       G      F#     F
Will mend my broken limbs and bend my haze
Cm       G#       G      F#     F
I'm sleeping in the silence of your voice

Cm       G#       G      F#     F
I'm cradling the peril of my only choice



B            A#                B
Colorful and falling from your mouth

               A#         B
Like a painted fever in recoil

                        D#m
Like a lie without the pain



     D              D#m
On a pillow of your bones

       D               F#      
I will lay across the stones

        Bm              A#                  
Of your shore until the tide comes crawling

D#m         D             D#m
Throw my pillow on the fire

        D             F#      
Make my bed under the eye

        Bm             A#                  Cm  
Of your moon until the tide comes crawling back



B    A#                   D#m    Dm      C#m    B
Even though the truth can burn inside or fall behind

       A#                  D#m  Dm
I will wander through your open mind

    C#m         B    A#      D#m    
And you will find no lie can hide

D    D#m    D      F#    Bm
              Yeah...

          A#             D#m
Until the tide comes crawling



     D              D#m
On a pillow of your bones

       D               F#      
I will lay across the stones

        Bm              A#                  
Of your shore until the tide comes crawling

D#m         D             D#m
Throw my pillow on the fire

        D             F#      
Make my bed under the eye

        Bm             A#                    
Of your moon until the tide comes crawling

     D              D#m
On a pillow of your bones

       D               F#      
I will lay across the stones

        Bm              A#                  Cm
Of your shore until the tide comes crawling back
