Intro
D5
[Verse 1]
Dmaj7
The embers of memories, of the flame that is past
D7
The way that the drapes cling to the clasps
E7 Gm Dmaj7
And the essence of all that rises and falls is the sound
[Verse 2]
Dmaj7
The melody still lingers long after the song
D7
The way that the ground takes claim above
E7 Gm Dmaj7
Of the essence of all above and below ground is the sound
[Chorus]
D D7
Well I used to think that life was just an accident
Am G
Happened once and then broke, never, ever to happen again
A# Dmaj7
Like a dream or a trance, until I heard the sound
Dmaj7
Until I heard the sound.
[Verse 3]

The embers of memories, of the flame that is past

Oh the essence of all that collapses or crawls is the sound
[Chorus]

I used to think that life was just an accident
D7 Am G
Happened once and then broke, never, ever to happen again
A# Dmaj7
Like a dream or a trance, until I heard the sound
