Intro: Drumbeats


Verse 1:
DmDm
 Let's call this the quiet city
Where screams are felt
       Bb majorBb
as a wave of stoplights
          C majorC
Drive through the streets as
            FF
gunshots punctuate the night
       DmDm
The sides we take divide
    Bb majorBb
us from our faith
    C majorC
And the morning dove gets
            DmDm
caught in the telephone wire
 DmDm
Asleep you set the fire
  FF
in your own house
And the night was
 Bb majorBb
a knife that cut
  C majorC
And I'm para--


Chorus 1:
 DmDm
--lyzed
DmDm
Cross out the eyes
DmDm
Blur all the lines
C majorC
Tearing this canvas
     DmDm
from the wall
  DmDm
We crossed out the eyes
  DmDm
Put lines through these cries
  C majorC
We pulled all the leaves
          DmDm
from the trees that fall
(your trees that fall
your trees that fall
your trees that fall
your trees that fall)

Verse 2:
FF
 A augmentedA silent dance that we
Bb majorBb
did into this hospital bed
             DmDm
Hear voices from another room
          FF
"It happens all the time"
           DmDm
but you leave in the sand
       Bb majorBb
the leaves fallen
           C majorC
counting down days to live
Drain the blood
        Bb majorBb
from this valentine!
    DmDm
"We can rise on the
     Bb majorBb
wings of the dove
     DmDm
See blue skies getting caught
             Bb majorBb
in the trail of all this smoke
    DmDm
We can rise like candles in
Bb majorBb
the dark-yours always"
C majorC
 and an envelope marked with
      DmDm
your new address
 DmDm
Asleep you set the fire
  FF
in your own house
And the night was
 Bb majorBb
a knife that cut
  C majorC
And I'm para--


Chorus 2:
 DmDm
--lyzed
DmDm
Cross out the eyes
DmDm
Blur all the lines
C majorC
Tearing this canvas
     DmDm
from the wall
  DmDm
We crossed out the eyes
  DmDm
Put lines through these cries
  C majorC
We pulled all the leaves
          DmDm
from the trees that fall

 your cries!!


Verse 3:
A minorAm
 It was the first
time face to face
I'm crossing the line
Talking to the other
side of death
Hearing the words that choke
memories into flatlines
I'm calling your name
hoping for something
to wash these dreams
of you away
     DmDm Bb majorBb DmDm Bb majorBb DmDm Bb majorBb C--
(till we die!)
   DmDm Bb majorBb   DmDm   Bb majorBb DmDm Bb majorBb C--
(memories in flatlines!)


Chorus 3:
DmDm
  Cross out the eyes when
  C majorC
you said all these  lies
DmDm
  Cross out the eyes when
  G minorGm
you said all these  lies


Outro:
FF
Fence was blown down in a
           G minorGm
winter storm and this field
(cross out the eyes!)
 DmDm
Stretches out of this
        G minorGm
world into the sound
(A augmentedA trace of!)
FF
What can we do put a stop to
         G minorGm
the coming white days
(In a love song!)
  DmDm
I'm hoping for something to wash
           C(hold)
these dreams of you away
(Stretches out of this world
Lets drive back the dead
Stretches out of this world
