Intro
B F# C# B x4
[Verse 1]
B F#
Close calls, near wins
C# B
Cling to your skeleton
B F#
Arms down and invite me in
C# B
There's nothing there for you
[Verse 2]
B F#
Slow songs, wear your hair long
C# B
Like it keeps you safe
B F#
Head lights, blink and I've gone
C# D#m A#
Back to my old ways
[Pre-Chorus]
B F#
Hands stop swaying, and my heart stops beating
C# B
And I'm outside standing alone
B F#
Box, so calm, but I can't help feeling
C# D#m A#
Like a sure shock ready to blow
[Chorus]
B F#
Got me trembling in your hands,
C# B
Got me shaking in my shoes
B F#
Well we made it through the night,
C# G#m F#
But there is still so much to do
B F# C# B x2
[Verse 4]
B F#
Green gills, bent scrims
C# B
Tangled in your tangled limbs
B F#
I forgot what forgetting is
C# B
So I'll rely on you
[Verse 5]
B F#
Hotel, set your bones well
C# B
With your songs and safes
B F#
Six weeks, still you can't sleep
C# D#m A#
In the bed we made
[Bridge]
B A#m A G#m A#m x2
B A#m
I used to write letters
A G#m A#m
And listen to music
B
We're in the business
A#m
For big decisions
A G#m A#m
Cold comforts and music
[Pre-Chorus]
B
Still in the skies
F#
In the wait of your life
C# B
We ain't got that kind of love
B F#
So get up and dance like there's blood on your hands
C# B
And just shake it like it won't come off
[Chorus]
B F#
Got me trembling in your hands
C# B
Got me shaking in my shoes
B F#
Screams that happen in my eyes
C# D#m A#
But it's all to point out you
B F#
Got me freezing where I stand
C# B
With your complicated shoes
B
I must admit I never been
F# C#
Confronted with a creature so lovely
D#m A#
Just don't know what to do
[Outro]
B A#m A G#m A#m x6
