Key: Am 🎸 Intro: Am | Am | Am | Am G/B | Cmaj7 | Am | C/G | C/G | 🎸 Verse 1: F Trying to see from in this room where it is blinding Am Learning to breathe beneath the surface Am Of all the wrecked up things I haul with me around
🎸 Instrumental: Am9 | Am9 | Am9 | Am9 | 🎸 Chorus: Cmaj7 I heard singing at twilight Am Trailed by belongings G I crawled forward into a clearing at dusk F And got a huge fire growing Am It grew, night fell, and I kept throwing Am Whatever I could pick up into the flames 🎸 Instrumental: Am9 | Am9 | Am9 | Am9 | 🎸 Verse 2: Cmaj7 Nothing but me and all this shredded wood Am G I've been pulling into a heap of flames and smoke F This is my life and by now I've lived long enough Am To know that nothing's stronger than the blow Am The whipping wind, the way it tears Am9 F The sparks are full in the sky yawning open Am7 Em G/D Breath only very rarely song 🎸 Chorus: Cmaj7 You were singing at twilight Am With your fingers moving G And I heard the same song in a dream F And I sing it now to myself. Am I carry it into the night. Am I walk and there's a fire but it's at my back 🎸 Instrumental: Am7 | Em | Am7 | Em | Am7 | Em | Am7 | Cmaj7 | 🎸 Outro: Cmaj7 Am Three days of heavy rain G And there's still coals
