Verse
C C
Coming all around us in the blue light of the morning
C Dm
The whole entire world was in your eyes
Dm Dm
Felt so powerless and simple, the rain was on the window
Dm C
Sliding down and dripping all inside
[Verse 2]
C C
So I walked down by the water, saw the pulsing mass was shining
C Dm
Listened to the things out in the night
Dm Dm
Threw my dollars on the fire, crawled out through the wire
C
Hoping we'd eventually collide
[Chorus]
F Em Dm C
Hold my head to the skin I said, when my heart wasn't always there
F Em Dm C
As you turn down the light in the long black night, peel back the moon, beware!
[Instrumental Break]
Em Dm C
Em Dm C
[Verse 3]
C C
Through the darkness I kept moving, down the streets and through the alleys
C Dm
Hiding in the doorways from the cold
Dm Dm
And everything was pretty, stealing through the city
Dm C
Always somewhere better left to go
[Verse 4]
C C
So I climbed up on the mountain and the clouds were all around me
C Dm
I stumbled on, I could not see the light
Dm Dm
Always running from the slaughter, trembling through the water
Dm C
Trying to find away back down inside
[Chorus]
F Em Dm C
Hold my head to the skin I said, when my heart wasn't always there
F Em Dm C
As you turn down the light in the long black night, peel back the moon, beware!
[Instrumental Break]
Em Dm C
Em Dm C
[Verse 5]
C C
In the shadows I was walking, I was hidden from the morning
C Dm
Everything just seemed to fade away
Dm Dm
I was living in a movie, you never even knew me
Dm C
The people looked right through me everyday
[Verse 6]
C C
It was coming all around us in the blue light of the morning
C Dm
The whole entire world was in your eyes
Dm Dm
Felt so powerless and simple, the rain was on the window
Dm C
Sliding down and dripping all inside
