Intro
C Am
The sky was hung with brazen stars,
Em F
like Christmas lights on trees
C Am
You hung out too till the morning came,
Em F
till the sun fell in on me
Dm Em F
And all of our highs can't erase
Dm Em F
our lows in these darkening days
(INTERLUDE)
C Am Em F
(VERSE)
C Am
Ferris wheels and night time bars,
Em F
we live on separate times
C Am
Our peers around us grew up so dull,
Em F
that we left our lives behind
(PRE-CHORUS)
Dm Em F
The weight of your crystal heart
Dm Em F
The train ride that sets us apart
(CHORUS)
C Am
And I held you for a moment
C Am
lost, "like tears in the rain"
C Am
And you slept upon the sofa,
G Am F
and I never slept again
(I'm tired)
(INTERLUDE)
C Am Em F
(VERSE)
C Am
You're making out in your fathers car,
Em F
we're making out i'm fine
C Am
I saw you out at the show last night
Em F
I just ignore you all the time
C Am
Mary look what
Em F
they've done to me
C Am
This world has turned on me
Em F
and now I drink the life I taste
(PRE-CHORUS)
Dm Em F
The cracks in the walls disappear
Dm Em F
The days turn to weeks, turn to years
(CHORUS)
C Am
And I held you for a moment
C Am
lost, "like tears in the rain"
C Am
And you slept upon the sofa,
G Am F
and I never slept again
(I'm tired)
G Am F
and I never slept again
(I'm tired)
(INTERLUDE)

C Em F G
(BREAK)
C
Well my mind goes blank and my eyes roll back,
Em F G
when i'm sober I don't know what to say
C
I'll text you miserable things when I'm out
Em F G
drinking then lay cringing all the following day
C
I want to disappear when we end up hear,
Em F G
conversation just becomes such an ache
C
We're only vulnerable to those who approach us
F G
until they realise there's no heart to break
(CHORUS)
C Am
And I held you for a moment
C Am
lost, "like tears in the rain"
C Am
And you slept upon the sofa,
G Am F
and I never slept again
(I'm tired)
C Am
And I held you for a moment
C Am
lost, "like tears in the rain"
C Am
And you slept upon the sofa,
G Am F
and I never slept again
(I'm tired)

they've done to me

and now I drink the life I taste
