Bm A Bm G Bm D G
[Verse 1]
Bm A
They were taking small pains
D G
To not make him realize
Bm D
Made him feel he's different
G
Through and through
Bm A
F# monster in his own way
D G
Communicative quarantine
Bm A G
Unleashed on the world without a clue
[Pre-Chorus]
C Em Bm
Surrounded by the ghosts of paling pictures
C Bm A D
They come and slip away
A#
Vivid memories roll and spin
C
If only they would suck me in
[Chorus]
D
We're going up like fire in
A D
Just the blink between the dream
G
And the memories and the embers
Bm A
Of what we'd hoped it all would be
D
Breathing odour of lavender
A Bm
And it's all coming back to me
D G
Wish I didn't fail to say those
Bm A
Words before you'd have to leave
G
F# soul, a storm, a journey across the waves
[Verse 2]
Bm A
Here I stand and survey
D G
What the Father's cast my way
Bm A G
F# wind got up to bode times of change
Bm A
I close the door behind me
D G
Know the day break is too far
Bm A G
Me and who I was, alone, estranged
[Pre-Chorus]
C Em Bm
Surrounded by the scent invoking pictures
C Bm A D
Gone and yet so clear
A#
Vivid memories roll and spin
C
If only they would suck me in
[Chorus]
D
We're going up like fire in
A D
Just the blink between the dream
G
And the memories and the embers
Bm A
Of what we'd hoped it all would be
D
Breathing odour of lavender
A Bm
And it's all coming back to me
D G
Wish I didn't have to see now
Bm A
What back then I didn't see
G
F# soul, a storm, a journey across the waves
[Bridge]
A Bm G Bm A G
The crazy part ain't dreaming, wishing on a falling star
A Bm G A D
It's the world that's in between the cope and you
A Bm G A
I close my eyes and see a magic world in sepia
A Bm G A D
That cast me out onto a road without a clue
N.C.
We're going up like fire in
N.C.
Just the blink between the dream
N.C.
And the memories and the embers
N.C.
Of what we'd hoped it all would be
[Outro]
D
We're going up like fire in
A D
Just the blink between the dream
G
And the memories and the embers
Bm A
Of what we'd hoped it all would be
D
Breathing odour of lavender
A Bm
And it's all coming back to me
D G
Wish I didn't fail to say those
Bm A
Words before you'd have to leave
G
F# soul, a storm, a journey across the waves
G
F# soul, a storm, a journey across the waves, oh
G
F# soul, a storm, a journey across the waves
