Chords

[Intro] D A Em Bm Em D A (x2)
G              F#m            Bm
I set down the dream with the rain boots

    Em         D            A
And decided to ride out the storm

   G       F#m          Em          Bm
Now I can't recall how to welcome the light

      Em           D          A
And I can't see not window or door
[Verse 1]
                D
It's these four walls of mine

          A
How they change colors

         Em             Bm
Now they sing to me sometimes

  A                                  D
So dark the verse, so comfortable the tune

           A
Seduced to nothing

        Em          Bm
Just a servitude in size

     A
All singing, bloodshot eyes
[Chorus]
               G          A
Bruise colored highlights

            D
Dreams that never stood a chance

               Bm             G
We've been subtracting in the dark

           A                D
Now in the dark is where we dance

         G        A
To radio violence

       D              Bm
Communicated, filters through

             G
A lost transmission on repeat

       A
No one else is listening to
D A Em Bm Em D A (x2) [Verse 2]
          D
If I went dark tonight

           A
Would I change colors?

        Em              Bm
Go from tip to tails in white

         A                             D
To southern stumbles soaked in rage by midnight

          A
We saw it coming

     Em             Bm
A misfortune teller knew

     A
Made sure it all came true
[Chorus]
               G          A
Bruise colored highlights

            D
Dreams that never stood a chance

               Bm             G
We've been subtracting in the dark

           A                D
Now in the dark is where we dance

         G        A
To radio violence

       D              Bm
Communicated, filters through

             G
A lost transmission on repeat

       A
No one else is listening to

    D
But you
D A Em Bm A (x2) [Chorus]
               G          A
Bruise colored highlights

           D
Dreams all soaked in medicine

           G                 A
We're left alone here in the dark

          D
As in the dark was where we met

              G        A
Through radio violence

       D              Bm
Communicated, filters through

            G
A lost transmission on repeat

       A
No one else is listening to
D A Em Bm Em D A
