Verse 1:
Am7
I tied myself with wire
Fmaj7                     C
To let the horses run free
G
Playin' with the fire
E7                             D7
Until the fire played with me, yeah
Am7
And the stone was semi-precious
Fmaj7                       C
But we were barely conscious
G
Two souls too smart to be
E7
In the realm of certainty
            D7
Even on our wedding day
           Am7
Well, hey, hey
                        Fmaj7
We set ourselves on fire
                         C
Woah, God could not deny her
G
And it's not if I believe in love
E7
But if love believes in me
        D7
Come on and believe in me


Chorus:
Fmaj7            C
At the moment of surrender
Fmaj7          C
I folded to my knees
Am7                  G
I did not notice the passers-by
         Fmaj7
And they did not notice me


Verse 2:
Am7
I have been in every black hole
Fmaj7                        C
At the altar of the dark star
G
And my body's now a begging bowl
E7
And it's begging to get back
                          D7
Begging to get back to my heart
                    Am7
To the rhythm of my soul
                    Fmaj7
To the rhythm of my unconsciousness
                   C    G
To the rhythm that yearns
E7
To be released from control
          Fmaj7           C
And I was punching in the numbers
Fmaj7      C
At the ATM machine
Am7                  G
I could see in the reflection
Fmaj7
A face staring back at me


Chorus:
Fmaj7             C
At the moment of surrender
Fmaj7                  C
Of vision over visibility
Am7                   G
I did not notice the passers-by
Fmaj7
And they did not notice me

Instrumental:
Am7      Fmaj7    C        G        E7       D7
Am7      Fmaj7    C        G        E7       D7

Bridge:
Fmaj7                 C
I was speeding on the subway
Fmaj7                       C
Through the stations of the cross
Am7                     G
Every eye looking every other way
Fmaj7
Counting down 'til the pain would stop


Chorus:
Fmaj7            C
At the moment of surrender
Fmaj7          C
I folded to my knees
Am7                  G
I did not notice the passers-by
Fmaj7
And they did not notice me

Outro:
Am7      Fmaj7    C        G        E7       D7
