Constellations chords by The Oh Hellos

Chords with lyrics

Intro: BB G# minorG#m

Verse: 1
BB
I can feel it on my tongue
Brick and mortar as thick as scripture
    G# minorG#m          D#mD#m        F#F#
Drawing lines in the sand and laying borders as tall as towers
BB
I babble on until my voice is gone

Verse: 2
This hill I'll die on is about 90 meters of bricks
                    G# minorG#m      D#mD#m
Colored indigo, inscribed with my name, and lined with cedar
    F#F#
But the words fall flat like cymbals crashing
   BB
Like molars gnashing

F#F#                     BB
'Cause like constellations a million years away
            G# minorG#m   C#C#
Every good intention, every good intention
BB        F#F#           BB
Is interpolation, a line we drew in the array
            G# minorG#m
Looking for the faces
Looking for the shapes in the silence

Verse: 3
BB
All that's left for me to climb to the heavens is the chasm of the night
And a matter of time
        F#F#
But I hear the rumble
As the tectonic plates start to shake
   BB
And I feel my blood pounding like the beat of a drum


F#F#                     BB
'Cause like constellations a million years away
          G# minorG#m    C#C#
Every good intention, every good intention
BB        F#F#           BB
Is interpolation, a line we drew in the array
        G# minorG#m
Clinging to the faces

Clinging to the shapes in the silence

Solo
C#C# G#G# C#C# BB
D#D# F#F# BB G# minorG#m F#F# BB G#G#


F#F#                   BB
Like constellations imploding in the night
            G# minorG#m      F#F#
Everything is turning, everything is turning
                              BB
And the shapes that you drew may change beneath a different light
                G# minorG#m
And everything you thought you knew
F#F#
will fall apart, but you'll be all right

End
BB D#mD#m G# minorG#m D#D# BB G#G# G#5G#5
