Verse
Dm A#/D Gm6/D
Another wailing wall,
A/C#
F# slip, a fall,
Dm7/C E7/B
An emptiness that holds it all,
A A7/G
I know it blinded.
D A#/D Gm6/D
F# star that travels into holes
A/C# Dm7/C
To get a sense of how it ends,
E7/B A
It's better than to shine uncounted.
[Chorus 1]
Bdim7/A Abdim7/A A
Is this my howling book?
Bdim7/A Abdim7/A Am E
Is this all that you took from me?
G#7/D# C#m F#m C#m/G# G#
I wrote it as a way
Bm7 C#7/B F#m A7/E
to say enough.
Dm Am/E E
I wrote it as a door
Gm6 A7/G
To take you away,
Gm6 A A7
So far away from me
[Interlude]
Dm A#/D Gm6/D A/C#
Dm7/C E7/B A A A7/G
[Verse 2]
Dm A#/D Gm6/D
Another page to turn,
A/C#
F# word, a space,
Dm7/C E7/B
So many feelings with a face,
A A7/G
I know it blinded.
Dm A#/D Gm6/D
Another soul you sold
A/C#
To try to feel,
Dm7/C E7/B
It's almost like you thought me real,
A
And so I vanish
[Chorus 2]
Bdim7/A Abdim7/A A
Is this my howling book?
Bdim7/A Abdim7/A Am E
Is this all that you took from me?
G#7/D# C#m F#m C#m/G# G#
I wrote it as a way
Bm7 C#7/B F#m A7/E
to say enough.
Dm Am/E E
I wrote it as a door
Gm6 A7/G
To take you away,
Gm6 A A7
So far away from me
