Verse 1:
Am7Am7
I tied myself with wire
Fmaj7Fmaj7           C majorC
To let the horses run free
G+G
Playin' with the fire
E7E7               D7D7
Until the fire played with me, yeah
Am7Am7
And the stone was semi-precious
Fmaj7Fmaj7            C majorC
But we were barely conscious
G+G
Two souls too smart to be
E7E7
In the realm of certainty
      D7D7
Even on our wedding day
      Am7Am7
Well, hey, hey
            Fmaj7Fmaj7
We set ourselves on fire
             C majorC
Woah, God could not deny her
G+G
And it's not if I believe in love
E7E7
But if love believes in me
    D7D7
Come on and believe in me

Chorus:
Fmaj7Fmaj7      C majorC
At the moment of surrender
Fmaj7Fmaj7     C majorC
I folded to my knees
Am7Am7         G+G
I did not notice the passers-by
     Fmaj7Fmaj7
And they did not notice me


Verse 2:
Am7Am7
I have been in every black hole
Fmaj7Fmaj7            C majorC
At the altar of the dark star
G+G
And my body's now a begging bowl
E7E7
And it's begging to get back
             D7D7
Begging to get back to my heart
          Am7Am7
To the rhythm of my soul
          Fmaj7Fmaj7
To the rhythm of my unconsciousness
          C majorC  G+G
To the rhythm that yearns
E7E7
To be released from control
     Fmaj7Fmaj7      C majorC
And I was punching in the numbers
Fmaj7Fmaj7   C majorC
At the ATM machine
Am7Am7         G+G
I could see in the reflection
Fmaj7Fmaj7
A augmentedA face staring back at me


Chorus:
Fmaj7Fmaj7       C majorC
At the moment of surrender
Fmaj7Fmaj7         C majorC
Of vision over visibility
Am7Am7          G+G
I did not notice the passers-by
Fmaj7Fmaj7
And they did not notice me

Instrumental:
Am7Am7   Fmaj7Fmaj7  C majorC    G+G    E7E7    D7D7
Am7Am7   Fmaj7Fmaj7  C majorC    G+G    E7E7    D7D7

Bridge:
Fmaj7Fmaj7         C majorC
I was speeding on the subway
Fmaj7Fmaj7            C majorC
Through the stations of the cross
Am7Am7           G+G
Every eye looking every other way
Fmaj7Fmaj7
Counting down 'til the pain would stop


Chorus:
Fmaj7Fmaj7      C majorC
At the moment of surrender
Fmaj7Fmaj7     C majorC
I folded to my knees
Am7Am7         G+G
I did not notice the passers-by
Fmaj7Fmaj7
And they did not notice me

Outro:
Am7Am7   Fmaj7Fmaj7  C majorC    G+G    E7E7    D7D7
