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