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

G#maj7 G#7 A#7 C#m G#7
[Chorus]

Well I used to think that life was just an accident
