Bm          A
  Questing,   I am not coasting.

Bm                 A
  Nor will I ever,   despite this weather. I said,
Prechorus 1:
D                       G
  "Hey you, what's new?   I know your face."

  "Hey you, what's new?   Let's go some place."

  My thoughts that flit, my loosening grip.

  "I need to connect to you   now."
Chorus 1:
D                        G
On our knees against the windowsill.

A                           G  
Watching the sheet lightning fly.

A                                 G
  Our hands caught spray from the open window.

A                                  G
  A blanket of light, a whitewashed sky.
Verse 2:
Bm                    A
  You move your frame   into the shape.

Bm                 A
  The window makes   a lunar flame.

Bm                       A
  Static headlights glow   in the flooded streets below.

Bm                      A
  The TV turns to snow,   gutters weep with overflow. I said,
Prechorus 2:
D                       G
  "Hey you, what's new?   I know your face."

  "And I need to connect to you   now."
Chorus 2:
D                        G
On our knees against the windowsill.

A                           G
Watching the sheet lightning fly.

A                                 G
  Our hands caught spray from the open window.

A                                  G
  A blanket of light, a whitewashed sky.

  Thanks for coming by,     it's such a dreadful night.

                         Bm
  A net curtain flashes,    outside the rain it lashes.

D                        Bm
  Frozen stardust falls,    wide eyes can see it all.
G G Chorus 3:
D                        G
On our knees against the windowsill.

A                           G
Watching the sheet lightning fly.

A                                 G
  Our hands caught spray from the open window.

          D                        G
And we're on our knees against the windowsill.

A                           G
Watching the sheet lightning fly.

A                                 G
  Our hands caught spray from the open window.

                  D
Thanks for coming by.
