[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G
There is no great thing, to stop and sing
G
Waiting for the rain
G
And this perfect pill, it's all too much
G C - Em - D C - Em - D - D - G
On the edge again, don't look away
G
Couldn't help but note the coldest thing
G
In your precious face
G
Why do you always speak when you have no grace
G
In your precious face
[Chorus]
C Em D
But even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone
C Em D
But these hot gates you spent your victory on though your swore you wouldn't do this anymore
C Em D
And I can't be for you all of the things you want me to
C Em D
But I will love you constantly There's precious little else to me
Em D G Em - D - G
And though we cry, we must stay alive
[Verse]
G
Another fragile edge, and a tender sound
G
And then you went aground
G
Near a duller blade, a promise out of sight
G
There's nothing here for you tonight
[Chorus]
C Em D
But even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone
C Em D
But these hot gates you spent your victory on though your swore you wouldn't do this anymore
C Em D
And I can't be for you all of the things you want me to
C Em D
But I will love you constantly There's precious little else to me
[Bridge]
Em D G
And though we cry, we must stay alive
Em D G
Let my blood only run out when my world decides
Em D G
There is no way out of your only life
Em D
So run on, run on
[Solo]
C - Em - D - D x 4
[Outro]
Em - D - G - G x 2
