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

Happened once and then broke, never, ever to happen again

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

Until I heard the sound.
