Capo 1st fret
[Verse 1]
D C Em G
Light ended the night, but the song remained
D C Em G
And I was hiding by the stair, half here, half there, past the lashing rain
D Em F#m G
And as the sky would petal white, old innocent lies came to mind
A G D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D
As we stood congregated at the firing line
[Verse 2]
D C Em G
Night ended the fight, but the song remained
D C Em G
And so I headed to the wall, turned tail to call to the new domain
D Em F#m G
As if in the sight of sea, you're suddenly free but it's all the same
A G D G
Oh, but I can hear you, loud in the center
A G D G D Em F#m G
Aren't we made to be crowded together, like lea-ea-ea--eaves?
D Em F#m G
Ooh ooh-ooh ooh, ooh, ooh
[Refrain 1]
F Em
Was I too slow?
F Em
Did you change overnight?
G
Second son, on the other line
[Verse 3]
D C Em G
Now, back in our town as a castaway
D C Em G
I'm reminded of the time it all fell in line, on the third of May
D Em F#m G
As if it were designed, painted in sand to be washed away
A G D G
Oh, but I can hear you, loud in the center
A G D G D Em F#m G
Aren't we made to be crowded together, like lea-ea-ea--eaves?
D Em F#m G
Ooh ooh-ooh ooh, ooh, ooh
[Refrain 2]
F Em
Was I goin' too slow?
F Em
Did I change overnight?
G Dm
Second son, for the second time
[Bridge]
Dm
Can I be light and free?
Em F
If I lead you through the fury will you call to me?
Em F Dm
And is all that I might owe you carved on ivory?
C F Em Dm
But all will fade, all I say, all I needed
C F Em Dm
As a flash in the eye, I wouldn't deny, all receded
Dm
Life unfolds in pools of gold
Em F
I am only owed this shape if I make a line to hold
Em F Dm
To be held within one's self is deathlike, oh I know
C F Em Dm
But all will be, for mine and me, as we make it
C F Em Dm
And the size of the fray, can't take it away, they won't make it
[Outro]
Emaj7
I was a fool
G# F#
Crime after crime to confess to
E
But I hold the fleet angel
Fm
She'll bless you
D#maj7 Fm
Hold ---- fast to the wing
D#maj7 Fm
Hold ---- fast to the wing
