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