Intro
E Gadd9 B11 Aadd9 x2
[Verse 1]
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Forgotten eyes are the ones which we lose
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Forgotten hands are the ones which we choose
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
To let go of, but it is no less a bruise
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
On the collective arm keeping us high and gone
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Forgotten dance is the one left at birth
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Forgotten plants in the fossils of earth
E Aadd9 G/C# B
And they've long passed but they are no less the dirt
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Of the common soil keeping us dry and warm
[Chorus]
E Emaj7 E7
The wound has no direction
Amaj7 E/G# F#m7 B7
Everybody needs a home and deserves protection, hmm-mm
[Verse 2]
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Hollow-eyed on Eddie street no sirens to hear
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Just trash and soiled needles clawing the veneer
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
And no crying but it is no less a tear
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
On the common cheek with which we smile
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Hollow-eyed on Eddie, is it they or is it I
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Is it me who is more hollow as I'm quickly passing by?
E Aadd9 G/C# B
And the poison is killing them, but then so am I
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
As I turn away
[Chorus]
E Emaj7 E7
The wound has no direction
Amaj7 E/G# F#m7 B7
Everybody needs a home and deserves protection, hmm-mm
[Outro]
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Forgotten tongue is the language of love
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Forgotten tongue is the language of love
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Forgotten tongue is the language of love
E Gadd9 Emaj7/G# B
Forgotten tongue
