Verse 1:
C   Em                C       Em
I remember your silhouette on Dyes Inlet
C           Em                 G                Am
Against the silver sheen of a moon like painted glass
C     Em             C         Em        C
Under stars out on a pier; a celestial sphere
        Em                G               Am
We were weightless as the waves that disappeared


Chorus:
Em        G      D         Em/B   G/B
Northern lights filled our skies
Em     G      D      Em/B   G/B
Empty nights synchronized


Break:
C   Em   C   Em
C   Em   G   Am


Verse 2:
C           Em           C         Em
We shared a clove cigarette on the parapet
C      Em                   G                    Am
As the TVs glowed from the windows of the model homes
C             Em              C           Em               C
And I'd never be that close again to your lips and perfect skin
       Em             G        Am
As the tide receded into the unknown


Chorus:
Em        G      D         Em/B   G/B
Northern lights filled our skies
Em     G      D      Em/B   G/B
Empty nights synchronized

Em       D       C           G
Northern lights filled our skies
Em     G      D      Em/B   G/B
Empty nights synchronized


Break:
Em

Em                            G    Am
I remember your silhouette on Dyes Inlet

C   Em   C   Em
C   Em   G   Am

C   Em   C   Em
C   Em   G   Am


Chorus:
Em        G      D         Em/B   G/B
Northern lights filled our skies
Em     G      D      Em/B   G/B
Empty nights synchronized

Em       D       C           G
Northern lights filled our skies
Em     G      D      Em/B   G/B    Em
Empty nights synchronized
