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