Verse 1:
B                  Bmaj7
I can feel it on my tongue
                B
Brick and mortar thick as scripture
        B            G#m             D#m        F#
Drawing lines in the sand and laying borders as tall as towers
B                    B
I babble on until my voice is gone

Verse 2:
B                            Bmaj7          B
This hill I'll die on is about 90 meters of bricks
                     B            G#m                  D#m
Colored indigo, inscribed with my name, and lined with cedar
        F#                   B
But the words fall flat like cymbals crashing
     B                  F#
Like molars gnashing


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

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


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

Instrumental:
A|----4-1--------|----4-6---3-1--|----4-1--------|

F# F#  Bmaj7 G#m


Chorus:
F#                                   Bmaj7
Like constellations imploding in the night
                     G#m
Everything is turning, everything is turning
F#                                                          B
And the shapes that you drew may change beneath a different light
                               G#m                                     F#
And everything you thought you knew will fall apart, but you'll be all right

Outro:
F#      B  G#m D#m
B   G#m        D#m
