Verse
Am F/A Dm6/A
Another wailing wall,
E/G#
C# slip, a fall,
Am7/G B7/F#
An emptiness that holds it all,
E E7/D
I know it blinded.
A F/A Dm6/A
C# star that travels into holes
E/G# Am7/G
To get a sense of how it ends,
B7/F# E
It's better than to shine uncounted.
[Chorus 1]
Bdim7/E Abdim7/E E
Is this my howling book?
Bdim7/E Abdim7/E Em B
Is this all that you took from me?
D#7/A# G#m C#m G#m/D# D#
I wrote it as a way
F#m7 G#7/F# C#m E7/B
to say enough.
Am Em/B B
I wrote it as a door
Dm6 E7/D
To take you away,
Dm6 E E7
So far away from me
[Interlude]
Am F/A Dm6/A E/G#
Am7/G B7/F# E E E7/D
[Verse 2]
Am F/A Dm6/A
Another page to turn,
E/G#
C# word, a space,
Am7/G B7/F#
So many feelings with a face,
E E7/D
I know it blinded.
Am F/A Dm6/A
Another soul you sold
E/G#
To try to feel,
Am7/G B7/F#
It's almost like you thought me real,
E
And so I vanish
[Chorus 2]
Bdim7/E Abdim7/E E
Is this my howling book?
Bdim7/E Abdim7/E Em B
Is this all that you took from me?
D#7/A# G#m C#m G#m/D# D#
I wrote it as a way
F#m7 G#7/F# C#m E7/B
to say enough.
Am Em/B B
I wrote it as a door
Dm6 E7/D
To take you away,
Dm6 E E7
So far away from me

I wrote it as a way

to say enough.
