[Intro]
Em
Em B7 C G C
Em
[Verse 1]
Em B7
Dark, ringing through the sky
C G
Shaking in the clouds
C G
Until the harps are out of tune
Em B7
And the song they play every night
C G
Keeping you awake
C G
While the thought sleeps in your soul
[Chorus 1]
Am
And every load I took
Am
To fill the hole that caved inside
Em B7
Just made it deeper, darker
C G
And wider than before
C G C Em
Don’t make me say it out loud anymore
Em
[Verse 2]
Em B7
And I’d cop just to change my scene
C G
And turn a useful nightmare
C G
Into a boring dream
Em B7
And my room, like a map of my time
C G
It’s always half past twelve
C G
And divided by two lines
[Chorus 2]
Am
And every step I took
Am
To take me further from the source
Em B7
Just brought me closer, inward
C G
And more lost than before
C G C Em
Don’t make me say it out loud anymore
C G Am G C
Oh well, if you don’t love me now you didn’t love me before

Em B7 C G C
Em
[Verse 3]
Em B7
And my love is turning into grief
C G
And loneliness, thy enemy
C G
It’s my only relief
Em B7
From a child lost in a crowd
C G
Looking for the landmarks
C G
That you keep burning down
[Chorus 3]
Am
And every sip I took from cups
Am
I carved out of my skull
Em B7
Just made me older, slower
C G
And sadder than before
C G C Em
Don’t make me say it out loud anymore
Em
C G Am G C
Oh no, if you don’t love me now you didn’t love me before
[Fade Out]
