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

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