Verse
Gm Eb/G Cm6/G
Another wailing wall,
D/F#
B slip, a fall,
Gm7/F A7/E
An emptiness that holds it all,
D D7/C
I know it blinded.
G Eb/G Cm6/G
B star that travels into holes
D/F# Gm7/F
To get a sense of how it ends,
A7/E D
It's better than to shine uncounted.
[Chorus 1]
Bdim7/D Abdim7/D D
Is this my howling book?
Bdim7/D Abdim7/D Dm A
Is this all that you took from me?
C#7/G# F#m Bm F#m/C# C#
I wrote it as a way
Em7 F#7/E Bm D7/A
to say enough.
Gm Dm/A A
I wrote it as a door
Cm6 D7/C
To take you away,
Cm6 D D7
So far away from me
[Interlude]
Gm Eb/G Cm6/G D/F#
Gm7/F A7/E D D D7/C
[Verse 2]
Gm Eb/G Cm6/G
Another page to turn,
D/F#
B word, a space,
Gm7/F A7/E
So many feelings with a face,
D D7/C
I know it blinded.
Gm Eb/G Cm6/G
Another soul you sold
D/F#
To try to feel,
Gm7/F A7/E
It's almost like you thought me real,
D
And so I vanish
[Chorus 2]
Bdim7/D Abdim7/D D
Is this my howling book?
Bdim7/D Abdim7/D Dm A
Is this all that you took from me?

I wrote it as a way
Em7 F#7/E Bm D7/A
to say enough.
Gm Dm/A A
I wrote it as a door

To take you away,
Cm6 D D7
So far away from me
