[Primeira Parte]

Am               C
You needn't be a chamber
   F             C          G         Am    G         F
To house all the echoes and voices of those that have left you
        C          G         Am        G   F                 G
Are you talking to me or somebody that you once knew passing through?
      Am                     C
Do we talk anymore or do our voices
      F          C          G                Am   G      F
Dance around themselves in circles, till we can't hear a damn thing?
       C        G             Am     G   F        C       G
We're still as stone but our shadows are dancing upon the wall

[Refrão]

Am                  C             F                  C
Oh, if you ever get tired of your conversations with ghosts
        F                       C
And all those that you let too close
               G
I'll be waiting
            Am               C
And I'll go swimming in the caves
        F               C
In the sparkle in your eyes
                 F                             C
They're just the tears you don't let yourself cry
     G
Trying, so hard to say goodbye

( Am  C  F  C  F  C  G )

[Segunda Parte]

Am                  C
Precious little mercies
      F                   C              G               Am    G     F
As I stumble between the pillars of this worn-out hacienda in the moonlight
     C                G        Am        G    F
Sometimes it takes a storm to appreciate the still night
              C        G
Don't let the darkness in
Am               C
Your voice just raging
     F           C                   G              Am      G             F
But how can I protect you from what happened to you then, what's already been?
         C            G         Am     G           F
I can't give you the words that really should have come from him
           C              G
Baby, I'm showing you my hand

[Refrão]
Am                  C             F                  C
Oh, if you ever get tired of your conversations with ghosts
        F                       C
And all those that you let too close
               G
I'll be waiting
            Am               C
And I'll go swimming in the caves
        F               C
In the sparkle in your eyes
                 F                             C
They're just the tears you don't let yourself cry
     G
Trying, so hard to say goodbye
