Intro
D#5
[Verse 1]
D#maj7
The embers of memories, of the flame that is past
D#7
The way that the drapes cling to the clasps
F7 G#m D#maj7
And the essence of all that rises and falls is the sound
[Verse 2]
D#maj7
The melody still lingers long after the song
D#7
The way that the ground takes claim above
F7 G#m D#maj7
Of the essence of all above and below ground is the sound
[Chorus]
D# D#7
Well I used to think that life was just an accident
A#m G#
Happened once and then broke, never, ever to happen again
Cb D#maj7
Like a dream or a trance, until I heard the sound
D#maj7
Until I heard the sound.
[Verse 3]
D#maj7
The embers of memories, of the flame that is past
D#7
The way that the drink cling to the cask
F7 G#m D#maj7
Oh the essence of all that collapses or crawls is the sound
[Chorus]
D# D#7
I used to think that life was just an accident
D#7 A#m G#
Happened once and then broke, never, ever to happen again
Cb D#maj7
Like a dream or a trance, until I heard the sound
[Guitar Solo]
D#maj7 D#7 F7 G#m D#7
[Chorus]
D# D#7
Well I used to think that life was just an accident
A#m G#
Happened once and then broke, never, ever to happen again
Cb D#maj7
Like a dream or a trance, until I heard the sound
[Outro]
D#maj7
Until I heard the sound.

Until I heard the sound.

Until I heard the sound.
