Intro
E5
[Verse 1]
Emaj7
The embers of memories, of the flame that is past
E7
The way that the drapes cling to the clasps
F#7 Am Emaj7
And the essence of all that rises and falls is the sound
[Verse 2]
Emaj7
The melody still lingers long after the song
E7
The way that the ground takes claim above
F#7 Am Emaj7
Of the essence of all above and below ground is the sound
[Chorus]
E E7
Well I used to think that life was just an accident
Bm A
Happened once and then broke, never, ever to happen again
C Emaj7
Like a dream or a trance, until I heard the sound
Emaj7
Until I heard the sound.
[Verse 3]
Emaj7
The embers of memories, of the flame that is past
E7
The way that the drink cling to the cask
F#7 Am Emaj7
Oh the essence of all that collapses or crawls is the sound
[Chorus]
E E7
I used to think that life was just an accident
E7 Bm A
Happened once and then broke, never, ever to happen again
C Emaj7
Like a dream or a trance, until I heard the sound
[Guitar Solo]
Emaj7 E7 F#7 Am E7
[Chorus]

Well I used to think that life was just an accident

Like a dream or a trance, until I heard the sound

Until I heard the sound.
