In This Moment – Surrender (Guitar)

Am                                   F
I tied myself with wire

F                                        C
To let the horses roam free

C/B
Playing with the fire

                 E                E      D   D   Am
Until the fire played with me

Am                                      F
The stone was semi-precious

F                                   C
We were barely conscious

        C/B
Two souls too smart to be

            E
In the realm of certainty

E             D              D          Am
Even on our wedding day

   Am                      F
We set ourselves on fire

    F                 C
Oh God, do not deny her

     C/B
It’s not if I believe in love

    E                           E
If love believes in me

           D           D
Oh, believe in me

            F          C
At the moment of surrender

    F            C
I folded to my knees

  Am                    G
I did not notice the passers-by

          F              F    Am
And they did not notice me

Am                                       F
I’ve been in every black hole

             F                       C
At the altar of the dark star

   C/B
My body’s now a begging bowl

        E                               E
That’s begging to get back, begging to get back

          D    D
To my heart

                                 Am   Am
To the rhythm of my soul

                                  F                             F
To the rhythm of my unconsciousness

                                 C
To the rhythm that yearns

C/B                         E          E
To be released from control

        F               C             F     C
I was punching in the numbers at the ATM machine

        Am             G
I could see in the reflection

      F                F
A face staring back at me

        F            C
At the moment of surrender

     F                  C
Of vision over visibility

  Am                    G
I did not notice the passers-by

         F                F
And they did not notice me

        F               C
I was speeding on the subway

                   F              C
Through the stations of the cross

       Am                 G
Every eye looking every other way

           F                             F
Counting down ’til the train would stop
