Tom: D
(intro) E5 F#sus4 D B5
C7+ Bm7 Em/C Bm7
Looking at you I see her face
C7+ Bm7 C7+
Through all these years, just waiting
Em7 C7+
It all catches up to you when you slow down
Bm7
I'm back in that yard,
C7+ Bm7
tasting that shame
C7+ Bm7 C7+ Bm7
Of pushing her down, Of kids and her games
Em7 F#m7
...their strongholds
C#m7 Asus2 C#m7 Asus2
We had a bigger world - we had a better view
C#m7 Asus2
I guess I never fully realized then
G#m7 F#m7 Asus2 Bsus2
What she lost when I cut that loss
(intro)
C7+ Bm7 C7+ Bm7
So she filled the void with unearthly friends
C7+ Bm7 Em7 F#m7
Voices of hers - greater...
C#m7 Asus2 C#m7 Asus2
We had a bigger world - we had a better view
C#m7 Asus2
I wish she'd never told us about her voices
G#m7 F#m7 Asus2 Bsus2
We were strong, we were much too strong
(intro) - *Never forgive - never forget*
We picked and pierced, we ripped and we tore
We hit and we scratched to make in her a hole
Glares and eyes - whispers and notes
Attached to her every pose
( Am Gsus2 D5 F5 Am )
(Cm Bb G# Gm Fm Eb Cm)
We fed her shouts
For the collection of her voices
(Bm A G F#m Em D Bm)
I was too weak to collect
But so, it turned out, was she
Both paid in soul for the cutting of that loss
Their ugly truth
Outnumbered by far her beautiful dream
And I closed my eyes
Were her eyes in yours already when we met?
Am I still paying debts to recover Life?
C7+ Bm7 C7+ Bm7
Now I can see she proved to be right
C7+ Bm7
As she was called down
C7+
It's sad though...
Em7
...that I turned out to be one of her voices.
