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

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