Intro:
EMaj7Emaj7 - Emaj7add13 - EMaj7Emaj7 - D#m7D#m7 - C#m7C#m7 - C#Maj9C#maj9


EMaj7Emaj7       EMaj7Emaj7
Scratch the nape, just like a snake
         D#m7D#m7                  C#Maj9C#maj9
I will shake the scales and dry self I have been dragging
     EMaj7Emaj7
And I'll walk into the sun
  EMaj7Emaj7
And I won't bite my thumb
            D#m7D#m7             C#m7C#m7 C#Maj9C#maj9
If the splendor ruptures, I'm gonna take it as it comes

Chorus 1:
C#m7C#m7                  Fm7Fm7
Lurch, murky depth can tear your heart cruel
C#m7C#m7                 Fm7Fm7
Deep calls to deep, a chance to sift through
C#m7C#m7      Fm7Fm7 C#m7C#m7     Fm7Fm7
Harsh may burn you love to seek truth
C#m7C#m7    C#Maj9C#maj9
Shed a new view

C#m7C#m7               Fm7Fm7
Lurch, murky depth can pull you under
C#m7C#m7               Fm7Fm7
Deep calls to deep raucous as thunder
C#m7C#m7     Fm7Fm7 C#m7C#m7   Fm7Fm7
Shake the wonder, prey to other
C#m7C#m7        C#Maj9C#maj9
Oh, we melt hearts a flutter

      EMaj7Emaj7
A augmentedA small grace bathed in old refrain
             D#m7D#m7
Stretch the frame a little further
            C#m7C#m7 C#Maj9C#maj9
This aria will play again
    EMaj7Emaj7               EMaj7Emaj7
Come now shiver through the soft aching jasmine ribbon around your claws
             D#m7D#m7
Rambles through the heart eons that dart

But never part
    C#m7C#m7       C#Maj9C#maj9
Now I finish the morning spark

Shed a new view
