Intro
F# B
[Verse 1]
F#
She said look at the moon,
F#
It's like a fingernail clipping
B
B sliver of light in the cold black sky
F# B
I gave her my coat, held her close and she cried
F#
As the sun came up over the jagged skyline,
B
The silence amplified our beating hearts
F# B
And I didn't answer when she asked why
[Chorus 1]
G#m
One life to live
Many paths to take
B
One twists and turns and falls away
F#
And flowers bloom in brilliant light
And fade away into the night
G#m
So much to lose
Or so it seems
B
These idle games and children's dreams
F#
How they confound and split the seams inside my mind
G#m
I just keep moving on into the unknown
[Post-Chorus]
F# B
[Verse 2]
F#
And I go walking alone near the St. Augustine bell
B
And thinking about you since you went away
F# B
We used to sit here and watch as the shadows played
F#
And if I try real hard, I can remember that sound
B
Ringing out just like a clarion
F# B
Echoing off of the wall of the dark arcade
[Chorus 2]
G#m
One life to live
Many paths to take
B
One twists and turns and falls away
F#
And flowers bloom in brilliant light
And fade away into the night
G#m
So much to lose
Or so it seems
B
These idle games and children's dreams
F#
How they confound and split the seams inside my mind
G#m
I just keep moving on into the unknown
[Solo Сhords]
D#m F# C#
[Verse 3]
D#m
You know being alone feels like I'm holding my breath
B
I try to be cool, I try to push it down
F# C#
I walk like I know where to go on a Friday night
D#m
And the city streets are the fangs of a beast
B
Yeah it's always tired, but it never sleeps
F#
I cry with the silence, dance with the freaks
C# G#m B
Come on, I'm getting on into the unknown.
[Outro]
F# A
