Verse
B B
Coming all around us in the blue light of the morning
B C#m
The whole entire world was in your eyes
C#m C#m
Felt so powerless and simple, the rain was on the window
C#m B
Sliding down and dripping all inside
[Verse 2]
B B
So I walked down by the water, saw the pulsing mass was shining
B C#m
Listened to the things out in the night
C#m C#m
Threw my dollars on the fire, crawled out through the wire
B
Hoping we'd eventually collide
[Chorus]
E D#m C#m B
Hold my head to the skin I said, when my heart wasn't always there
E D#m C#m B
As you turn down the light in the long black night, peel back the moon, beware!
[Instrumental Break]
D#m C#m B
D#m C#m B
[Verse 3]
B B
Through the darkness I kept moving, down the streets and through the alleys
B C#m
Hiding in the doorways from the cold
C#m C#m
And everything was pretty, stealing through the city
C#m B
Always somewhere better left to go
[Verse 4]
B B
So I climbed up on the mountain and the clouds were all around me
B C#m
I stumbled on, I could not see the light
C#m C#m
Always running from the slaughter, trembling through the water
C#m B
Trying to find away back down inside
[Chorus]
E D#m C#m B
Hold my head to the skin I said, when my heart wasn't always there
E D#m C#m B
As you turn down the light in the long black night, peel back the moon, beware!
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
B B
In the shadows I was walking, I was hidden from the morning
B C#m
Everything just seemed to fade away
C#m C#m
I was living in a movie, you never even knew me
C#m B
The people looked right through me everyday
[Verse 6]
B B
It was coming all around us in the blue light of the morning
B C#m
The whole entire world was in your eyes
C#m C#m
Felt so powerless and simple, the rain was on the window
C#m B
Sliding down and dripping all inside
