Chords with lyrics
[Verse]
G#G#
I said a word
E MajorE
It got caught in my throat and it burned
G#G#
Slipped off my tongue and I choked
You were concerned for a second
E MajorE
Then cries echoed into the night lesson learned
G#G#
Because you heard a word
E MajorE
That I said and this word how it rang
G#G#
In your head it was loud and glorious yes
E MajorE
And from where you lay on my chest
Well you heard it best
G#G# E MajorE
But you held me closely while I screamed
G#G# E MajorE
And I watched the thinnest trails of green
F#F# D#D#
Run down your neck and drip from your chin
E MajorE F#F# G#G#
Thin trails of green, thin lines on gray skin
[Chorus]
G#G# E MajorE
Thin lines on gray skin
G#G# E MajorE
Thin lines on gray skin
G#G# E MajorE
Where the world ends that’s where it begins
F#F# D#D#
My thin lines my thin lines
[Verse 2]
G#G#
I said a word
E MajorE
Was it a blessing or curse?
G#G#
Nobody knows the whole story
Nobody hears me but you
E MajorE
And you would have heard more if you could have I’m sure
G#G#
Because you heard my word,
E MajorE
You still do with your hands, eyes, and rest of you too
G#G#
Little stray on my lap, zealot, hellcat
E MajorE
Can’t forgive what I did to my dream-maker
Has thou forsaken her?
G#G# E MajorE
And if you knew what I knew would you object?
G#G# E MajorE
Are we madmen or soothsayers? Truthfully sweet heretic?
F#F# D#D#
I bit off the bit that silenced the world for you sewed up my sin
E MajorE F#F# G#G#
With thin threads of black, thin lines on gray skin
[Chorus]
G#G# E MajorE
Thin lines on gray skin
G#G# E MajorE
Thin lines on gray skin
G#G# E MajorE
Where the world ends that’s where it begins
F#F# D#D#
