Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
Cm Eb Bb Fm


Verse 1:
   Cm
We cut our tongues
                               Eb
On the grey of morning for the one we love
                             Bb
The sisters argued about what was done
                         Fm
As joy and sorrow often do

Verse 2:
       Cm
On the mantle hangs
                                   Eb
Our hearts with yours and all the sticky pain
                             Bb
The same thing that we have blamed
                          Fm
Is the same thing that we need


Chorus:
Cm Bb Eb
       The shadows light can bring
Ab Eb Cm
       In the joy and suffering
Cm Bb Eb
        The shadows light can bring
Ab Eb Bb
        In the joy and suffering


Verse 3:
Cm
In the arms
                           Eb
Of saint felicity is a thousand storms
                          Bb
Quietly rusting but still giving hope
                              Fm
This is a comma, not a period


Verse 4:
Cm
Curse the birds
                          Eb
For singing on a day when we have hurt
                                Bb
Tryin' to see through eyes that weeping blurred
                                         Fm
If I could see you would it even change?


Chorus:
Cm Bb Eb
       The shadows light can bring
Ab Eb Cm
       In the joy and suffering
Cm Bb Eb
        The shadows light can bring
Ab Eb Bb
        In the joy and suffering


Bridge:
              Ab                      Cm
Rend for me a thousand shades of blue
                   Eb               Bb
Give constellations  new consolations
           Ab               Cm
The shadow you cast continues
                   Eb               Bb
But a silver lining,  silver lining
              Ab                      Cm
Rend for me a thousand shades of blue
                   Eb               Bb
Give constellations  new consolations
           Ab               Cm
The shadow you cast continues
                   Eb               Bb
But a silver lining,  silver lining
Ab                       Cm
Wraps itself around you, wraps itself around you
     Eb                     Bb
In a kindness only darkness proves
Ab                       Cm
Wraps itself around you, wraps itself around you
     Eb                     Bb
In a kindness only darkness proves
Ab                       Cm
Wraps itself around you, wraps itself around you
     Eb                     Bb
In a kindness only darkness proves
