A Quiet Darkness - Houses
The rhythm can get sort of funky, but if you listen to the song once or twice, you'll get it.

Gm Bb F C
Gm
Well Heaven rode my back
Bb
And the angels dragged my throne.
F C
Only yesterday.
Gm Bb
Only yesterday
F C
I carved out your name.
Gm Bb
Only yesterday
F
I built you a shrine
C
On the side of the road.
Gm
And I shut my eyes
Bb F C
And laid my hands to rest.
Instrumental: Gm Bb F C
Chorus: x2
Gm
In dreams
Bb
There's a way
F C
To die.
Gm
Well I towed you from the wreck
Bb
Of dimming shadows in my head
F C
Only yesterday.
Gm Bb
Only yesterday
F C
I laid you to rest.
Gm Bb
Only yesterday
F
I wept for your shape
C
In it's endless decay.
Gm Bb
And I raised your voice from a stone
F C
With the song of the dead.

Gm
In dreams
Bb
There's a way
F C
To die.
