[Intro]

Am

C Em
Am Em F


[Verse 1]

C                   Em
Oh babe, meet me in Tompkins Square Park
        Am
I wanna hold you in the dark
         Em
One last time
              F
Just one last time
    C                                Em
And oh babe, can you tell what’s on my tongue?
                           Am
Can you guess that I’ll be gone?
        Em
With the twilight
         F
With the twilight


[Chorus]

F                      Am       G
  But no flame burns forever, oh no
                                 F
You and I both know this all too well
                Am           G
And most don't even last the night
No they don't, they say they don't


[Verse 2]

C                   Em
Oh babe, I've never been so lost
        Am
I wanna hear you lie
         Em
One last time
              F
Just one last time
    C                                   Em
But oh babe, I really wish you would not cry
                      Am
I only ever told you one lie
                          Em
When it could have been a thousand
                             F
It might as well have been a thousand


[Chorus]

F                      Am       G
  But no flame burns forever, oh no
                                 F
You and I both know this all too well
                Am           G
And most don't even last the night
No they don't, they say they don't
F            Am              G
  And we can talk it round again girl
                                  F
Round and round, round and round again
            Am              G
Or we could leave it out to die
Leave it out just leave it out


[Bridge]

Dm                  Am
  I never tried to trick you babe
                G
I just tried to work it out
                    Dm
But I was swallowed up by doubt
Dm                    Am
  If only things were black and white
                     C
Cause I just want to hold you tight
                        Dm
Without holding back my mind
F
   Without holding back my mind

F Am G G
F Am G G


[Chorus]

F                      Am        G
  But no flame burns forever, oh no
                                 F
You and I both know this all too well
                Am           G
And most don't even last the night

[Intro]

Bm (can be played as Bsus2)


[Verse 1]

         Bm7
You may call it in this evening
           Asus4           A
But you've only lost the night
       Bm7
Preset all your pretty feelings
         Asus4          A
May they comfort you tonight
          Bm7
And I'm climbing over something
         Asus4                 A
And I'm running through these walls


[Chorus]

               G
I don't even know if I believe
               Bm7
I don't even know if I believe
               D
I don't even know if I believe
                    A
Everything you're trying to say to me


Bm7   | Asus4  A   x2


[Verse 2]

   Bm7
I had the strangest feeling
      Asus4               A
Your world's not all it seems
    Bm7
So tired of misconceiving
      Asus4                A
What else this could have been?


[Chorus]

              G
I don't even know if I believe
              D
I don't even know if I believe
              Bm7
I don't even know if I believe
                    A
Everything you're trying to say to me

               G
So open up my eyes
               D
Tell me I'm alive
               Bm7
This is never gonna go our way
                      A
If I'm gonna have to guess what's on your mind


[Instrumental]

G   |Bm7   |D   |Em   F#m|


[Bridge]

G
Well say something, say something
                     Bm7
Something like you love me
                  D
That you wanna move away
                Em
From the noise of this place


[Chorus]

              G
I don't even know if I believe
              D
I don't even know if I believe
              Bm7
I don't even know if I wanna believe
                     A
Anything you're trying to say to me

               G
So open up my eyes
               D
Tell me I'm alive
               Bm7
This is never gonna go our way
                      A
If I'm gonna have to guess what's on your mind

               G
So open up my eyes
               D
Tell me I'm alive
               Bm7
This is never gonna go our way

If I'm gonna have to guess what's on your mind

{Verse 1]
G
Wide eyed
         A                 Bm
With a heart made full of fright
                           A                  D
Yeah her eyes follow like traces in the night

          G
And the tight row

That you wonder every time

You have been away you have been found wanting


[Chorus]
F#m   G              D
 Been wondering for days, how you felt me slip your mind
F#m       G                D

And shelter

You better keep the wolf back from the door

He wanders ever closer every night
G                 A              Bm
And how he waits baying for blood
                   A                D
I promised you everything would be fine


[Chorus]
F#m   G              D
 Been wondering for days, how you felt me slip your mind

Hold my gaze love. you know I want to let it go

We will stare down, at the wonder of it all

And I-i-i-i will hold you
    D Em         Bm
And I-i-i-i will hold you


[Chorus]
F#m   G              D
 Been wondering for days, how you felt me slip your mind
F#m       G                D
 Leave behind your wanting ways, I wanna look you in the eye
F#m             G     A    Bm     D
 Cause you are all I ever longed for

F#m   G              D
 Been wondering for days, how you felt me slip your mind

 Leave behind your wanting ways, I wanna learn to love and kind
F#m             G     A    Bm     D

[Verse 1]
           Am
It's in my blood it's in my water
                                      G
You try to tame me, tame me from the start
         Am
When the din is in your eye, flash your flesh
                          G
Desperate for a need to rise


[Pre-Chorus]
       C
With a silver crystal on
    G                              Am
How well you used to know how to shine
       C
In the place that's safe from harm
  G                                Am
I had been blessed with a wilder mind


[Chorus]
F         Am              G                        F
  You can be every little thing you want nobody to know
            Am           G                F
And you can try to drown out the street below
            Am        G
And you can call it love

If you want

Beholden now I find myself awake

Waiting on the edge again
    Am
You sleep so sound with your mind made up
                                  G
Drinking from your cup of broken ends


[Pre-Chorus]

[Verse 1]
C          F            C
  Tell my thoughts to resign
C          F            C
  And lift you from my mind
C          F        Am
  I'm not ready I'm not strong enough
   C          F              C
To cradle the weight of your love
C             F             Am
  Just take a minute take a breath
C             F          Am
Lay down your head on my sunken chest
C          F                 Am
   I saw a flicker then just smoke
           F           C           F           C
But as you left I was calling your name at the night


[Chorus]
C           F       Am
  I thought we were done
C          F          Am
  And your love would keep us young [x2]

[Verse 2]
C              F           C
  I thought we fell to the ground
C           F               C
  I see you whimper with no sound
C       F               Am
Open my mouth to breath some words of peace
        C             F               C
But the silence gives nothing back to me
C              F             Am
  So I'll be a shadow of the flame
  C            F              Am
I lent down to kiss you then erased my name
C               F              Am
  And I'll be a whisper on the wind
              F           C          F            C
My hands are shaking from holding so tight for so long


[Bridge]
    F                       Dm
The flame burnt out in our empty hands
    F                  Am
But now I see it's got nothing to do
         G
It's got nothing to do with you


[Chorus]
C           F       Am
  I thought we were done
C          F          Am
  And your love would keep us young [x4]

[Verse 1]
           C                 G
So we were up, throwing dice in the dark
           Am        G              Am
I saw you late, last night, come to harm
          C            G       C
I saw you dance in the devil's arms
               C                        G
The night kept coming, really nothing I could do

Eyes with a fire, unquenched, by peace

So when you're weak, when you are on your knees

I'll do my best, with the time, that's left
                C       G            C
Sworn with your spirit, you're fully fleshed
             C                             G
So fuck your dreams, and don't you pick at our seams

I'll turn into a monster for you, If you pay me enough

None of this counts a few dreams, plowed up

You hold it     in    your    hands,       let it flow,
      Am        Amadd#5 Am    C/G      G    Em    F
this cruelty, of youth as you fall   again      alone

and the compromise of truth

[Chorus 1]
F             Am          G                        F
  It’s in the eyes, I can tell you will always be danger

We had it tonight, why do you leave it open?

[Verse 1]
C                 Fm             C
Broad-shouldered beasts fill the sky
   C      Fm           C
Manhattan beats at the night
    Am                      F
But you are wrapped up in wire
             C     Fm C
Curled up in fright
     C               Fm           C
So I took you to the city for the night
   C           Fm           C
To dance under dizzy silver lights
          Am
But for a moment, you were wild
     F                            C     Fm C
With abandon like a child, just a moment
              F                      C
But wasn't it you who said I was not free
              F                    C
And wasn't it you who said I needed peace
             E                    F
And now it's you who's floored by fear of it all


[Chorus x2]
            C    F
And it's alright
               C   F
Take it out on me
            Am    F
And it's alright
               C
Take it out on me

[Verse 2]
       C        Fm              C
These apartment walls are paper thin
    C         Fm               C
And no one is trying to listen in
        Am
What to hear our doubts
         F                            C   Fm C
Hear our whispered shouts, they don't care
          F                      C
Wasn't it you who said I was not free
              F                     C
And wasn't it you who said I needed peace
             E                    F
And now it's you who's floored by fear of it all

And it's alright

Take it out on me

  Feel my hand round yours

Don't succumb

[Verse 1]

G                           D
  Weekend wreckers take the strains
Em                      B7
  With abandon in their eyes
C                                     D
  But in our bedroom we're bloodshot and beat
C             Em
  And never so alive


[Chorus]

C                           G  B7 C
  And I know what's on your mi-i-ind
                   G  B7 C
God knows I put it the-e-ere
                 G  B7 C
But if I took it ba-a-a-ck
                     Cm
Well you'd be nowhere
                      G
You'd be nowhere again


[Verse 2]

G                     D
  Now look at you all torn up
Em                      B7
  I left you waiting to bleed
C                            D
  I guess the truth works two ways
C                              Em
  Maybe the truth's not what we need


[Chorus]

C                           G  B7 C
  And I know what's on your mi-i-ind
                   G  B7 C
God knows I put it the-e-ere
                 G  B7 C
But if I took it ba-a-a-ck
                     Cm
Well you'd be nowhere
                      G
You'd be nowhere again


[Outro]

G           B7   Em   C
  But in my cold arms
          G
You don't sleep
      B7   Em   C
In my cold arms
          G
Your fear beats
      B7   Em   C  Cm
In my cold arms
    G
You stay

[Verse 1]

       Am
And in time
                   F               C
As one reminds the other of the past
  F                   C       G/B    Am
A life lived much too fast to hold onto
         F      C
How am I losing you?
         Am
A broken house
                  F                  C
Another dry month waiting for the rain
    F            C       G/B       Am
And I had been resisting this decay
                F      C
I thought you'd do the same


[Chorus]

                  F    C
But this is all I ever was
                    F    C            G      C
And this is all you came across those years ago
        F      C
Now you go too far
                        F         C            G       C
Don't tell me that I've changed because that's not the truth
    F       C     G
And now I'm losing you


[Verse 2]

           Am
Fragile sound
                       F             C
The world outside just watches as we crawl
F               C       G/B     Am
Crawl towards a life of fragile lines
    F      C
And wasted time
         Am
And so I cry
                      F                     C
As I hold you for the last time in this life
     F               C       G/B     Am
This life I tried so hard to give to you
               F       C
What would you have me do?


[Chorus]

                  F    C
But this is all I ever was
                    F    C            G      C
And this is all you came across those years ago
        F      C
Now you go too far
                        F         C            G       C
Don't tell me that I've changed because that's not the truth
    F       C     G
And now I'm losing you


[Bridge]

                Am      F         C
Where I used to end was where you start
    Am       F    C
You were the only one
                   Am    F       C
And now I see your eyes move too fast
    Am       F    C
You were the only one


[Verse 3]

        Am
Careful hands
                  F                   C
And wandering without that much to say
     F               C      G/B    Am
Your words are empty as the bed we made
         F       C
Is there another way?
   Am              F      C
Oh love, is there another way?


[Chorus]

                  F    C
But this is all I ever was
                    F    C            G      C
And this is all you came across those years ago
        F      C
Now you go too far
                        F         C            G       C
Don't tell me that I've changed because that's not the truth

And now I'm losing you

[Verse 1]
               G
Loneliness and all
      Bm           C              Em
I was stuck to the spot without a friend
 C     G
Alone again
C                    G
  And I hunger and I thirst
         Bm
For some shiver
         C         Em
For some whispered words
          C        G
And the promise to come
C  G


[Chorus]
C                G
  And you saw me low
C      G
Alone again

Didn't they say that only love will win in the end

  I didn't fool you but I failed you
   Bm            C           Em
In short, made a fool out of you

And a younger heart
C                   G
   And I rage and I rage
    Bm             C       Em
But perhaps I will come of age
       C         G
And be ready for you

  And you saw me low

Didn't they say that only love will win in the end

[Verse 1]

C
there is no great thing to stop and sing
C
waiting for the rain
C
and this perfect pill it’s all too much
                F  Am G
on the edge again

                F  Am G
don’t look away


          C
couldn't help but note the cold disdain in your precious face
          C
why do you always speak when you have no grace in your precious face


[Chorus 1]


   F           Am        G
but even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone
F           Am                G
these hot gates you spit your vitriol though you swore you wouldn’t do this anymore
F           Am           G
i cant be for you , all of the things that you want me to.
F                      Am           G
but i will love you constantly there's precious little else to me
    Am           G           C
and though we cry we must stay alive

C   G

[Verse 2]

        C
another fragile edge a tender sounds

and then you went aground
       C
your a duller blade a promise out of sight

there’s nothing here for you tonight


[Chorus 2]

   F           Am        G
but even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone
F           Am                G
these hot gates you spit your vitriol though you swore you wouldn’t do this anymore
F           Am           G
i cant be for you , all of the things that you want me to.
F                      Am           G
but i will love you constantly there's precious little else to me

[Bridge]

   Am           G           C
and though we cry we must stay alive
    Am           G           C
and my blood only runs out when my world decides
    Am           G           C
there is no way out of your only life
    Am           G           C
so run on run on
