Intro: A# G A# G D# C D# C
A# G A#
the sound of fingers
G D#
scratching slow behind the wall
C D#
you tried to hold me closer so
C A#
i wouldn’t heed the call
G A#
they’re on our doorstep
G D#
peaking grinning through the blinds
C D#
we’ll never wear our skeletons right
C A#
we kept our closets locked and tight
D# A#
any day now
D# G
with the flame of the sun in the south
C D# C D# C
we’ll take our paces, have it out
A# G A#
the lives of others
G D#
with their short hairs entwined
C D#
they keep our eyes a-cornered with crows
C A#
they make the sirens sing and sigh
G A#
any day now
G D#
we’ll comb our grey hairs aside
C D#
we’re nervous kids who twitch in time
C A#
we’re phantom limbs that itch at night
D# A#
any day now
D# G
when the weight comes a tumbling down
C A#
we’ll skin our knees and beat the ground
D# A#
sing it so soft
D# G
clutching hope like a corner of cloth
C D#
and now i know your peaks and troughs
C A# G# D#
and the stains that’ll never come off
(2:21) A# G# D# C D# C A# G# D# C
D#
just leave it alone
C A#
you’ll never save a sailing soul
D# A#
such a long face
D# G
with a pull like a body in space
C A#
the pieces falling into place
D# A#
then it came down
D# G
with a low, undeniable sound
C D#
we’ll go down easy, paint the town
C A#
we deserve everything that we found
A#
(3:20) A# D# A# D# A# D# A# D# until end on A
