Chords

[Verse 1]
              Fmaj7     C
Were that the song I'm singing

       Fmaj7  C
Was an ocean wide

        Fmaj7      Am
Let the word I'm breathing

          G           D
Reach us over to the other side

             Fmaj7    C
You chart a burning vessel

         Fmaj7        C
Out on a pitch black wave

            Fmaj7      Am
Chewing the bone and gristle

                G       D
When it's the flesh of love you crave
[Interlude] Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 C [Verse 2]
       Fmaj7        C
When a lie starts dancing

           Fmaj7     C
Oh boy, it sure can run

   Fmaj7           Am
Halfway around the world

             G                 D
Before the truth can get its trousers on

          Fmaj7      C
And in a nightclub mirror

              Fmaj7    C
We caught the merest glimpse

          Fmaj7   Am
Of my pre-human spirit

               G            D
Frozen like a deer in the headlamps

        Fmaj7       C
Till it just don't matter

          Fmaj7      C
Till we're far from care

      Fmaj7     Am
When illusion shatters

              G       D
You see the carnage everywhere

Fmaj7  C
Every-where

Fmaj7  C
Every-where
[Interlude] Fmaj7 Am G D [Verse 3]
              Fmaj7       C
To where they taste like metal

            Fmaj7  C
Through the fog of war

         Fmaj7       Am
Too many hurts like nettles

        G        D
Growing up around my door

         Fmaj7       C
Then they cut that stairway

              Fmaj7     C
Yeah, with my own bare hands

        Fmaj7       Am
To that high rock plateau

         G         D
Make my home inside the winds

Fmaj7       C
Inside the winds

Fmaj7       C
Inside the winds

           Fmaj7          C
Up to that high rocking plateau

         G
Make my home inside the winds
