Two Deliverances chords by The Hotelier

[Intro]

   D#, A#, G#
   D#, A#, G#
   D#, A#, G#
   Cm, Cm, A#, D#

D# A#     G#
   The icons cluttering your bureau
D# A#      G#
   Are eyeing me as I walk in
      Cm   A#   G#     D#
   Your guardians are present in here
      Cm      A#        D#
   And I trust that they have always been

D# A#     G#
   Hiding somewhere in your closet
D# A#      G#
   Collecting moisture from your face
      Cm   A#   G#      D#
   Your secret world speaks without words
         Cm     A#         G#
   And I feel clumsy and cumbersome in this place

        Cm    A#       G#     D#
   But if I want them too, will they speak to me soon
      Cm    A#     G#
   In a language ripe for my listening?
        Cm    A#       G#      D#
   When the harsh sun breaks in your stained glass eyes
     Cm    A#     D#
   The refracted light keeps glistening

D# A#    G#
   A drapery of clashing fabrics
D# A#     G#
   In every corner of your room
      Cm    A#     G#     D#
   They hung like lace on the whitewashed face
       Cm       A#       D#
   Of the walls that are begging you to move

D# A#       G#
   And leave the things that hold a history
D# A#       G#
   As if they're present in your will
    Cm    A#     G#  D#
   A brand new place a few miles away
         Cm     A#      G#
   But I just wasn't sure I was staying still

         Cm     A#      G#   D#
   But if you choose this too, it's an honest move
      Cm      A#      G#
   And I guess that it makes for no deferences
        Cm    A#     G#      D#
   There's a gleam of blue from a cold night's moon
     Cm    A#     G#
   Just a touch too soon, two deliverances

Cm A#   G#     D#     Cm
   On an empty panel floor I lie here
     A#       G#     D#
   For communion just waiting for one more
         Cm      A#    G# D#
   But in the quiet empty hours of my afternoon
       Cm      A#       G#
   What am I supposed to do? What was I supposed to do?

Cm A#     G#           D#
   But if I want them to, will they come to me soon?
        Cm  A#     G#      D#
   Will they fluctuate between midnight and past noon?
         Cm      A#      G#      D#
   Was kind of banking on a future that'd be involving you
           Cm     A#       G#
   But I couldn't ask this of you, I couldn't ask that

   Cm, A#, G#
   Cm, A#, D#
   Cm, A#, D#

       Cm      A#      G#   D#
   In this young night's sky there are pinhole lights
        Cm     A#     G#
   Find the shape of a harp and an arrowhead
      Cm    A#     G#    D#
   Do I hear your tunes or acknowledge wounds
       Cm        A#      D#
   That I got from rubbing elbows with a sharpened edge?

        Cm     A#     G#     D#
   But if I choose this too does it count as my move?
       Cm   A#   G#
   I can't drop my history just to become new
       Cm          A#       G#   D#
   Now I'm swimming through the nothingness and the absolute
           Cm     A#       G#
   But I couldn't ask this of you, I couldn't ask that

   D#, A#, G#
   G#, A#, G#
   Cm, A#, G#, D#
