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