Intro
G# C# G#
G# C# G#
[Verse 1]
G# C# G#
See that shoreline
G# C# G#
At the end of the line
G# C# G#
Holding the ocean
G# C# G#
Hostage again
{Pre Chorus}
Gb C#
Oh how much does she want this time
Gb C#
Can we ever get her to change her mind?
G# C# G#
Don’t feign your affection
G# C# G#
Don’t hide your gloom
G# C# G#
Be good to your sister
G# C# G#
And your half brother too
Gb C#
One day they’ll be gone with all your friends
Gb C#
They’ll be no one left to hear you then
[Chorus]
D#
In the morning
E D# Gb D#
With the sun in the dew
D#
In the morning
E D# Gb D#
Just like tears made of glue
D# E D# Gb D# D#7
Holding all the world in place just for you
[Verse 2]
G# C# G#
Just let it go
G# C# G#
The sun shines in vain
G# C# G#
Make-believe for a little while
G# C# G#
But don’t get carried away
[Pre Chorus]
Gb C#
I’ve never been much of a salesman
Gb C#
I don’t know how to make you pay attention
[Chorus]
D#
Maybe one day
E D# Gb D#
All alone in the yard
D#
Maybe one day
E D# Gb D#
Slip a note past the guard
D#
He’s a half-wit
E D# Gb D# D#7
But he’s trying so hard
[Verse 3]
G# C# G#
To be all that you wanted
G# C# G#
To have nothing but fame
G# C# G#
But it’s piled up into something
G# C# G#
That’s impossible to face
[Pre Chorus]
Gb C#
And now you’re trapped here forevermore
Gb C#
Heat on the hand of sins that’s far behind the door
[Chorus]
D#
Break your back
E D# Gb D#
Carry your love into town
D# E D# Gb D#
Maybe that’s what they meant when they said “settle down”
D# E D# Gb D# D#7
Making maps of all the cracks in the ground
