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