[Intro] | Gm | Em | Dm | Am | Am | | G | F6 | Cm | Bb | B | [Verse 1] | Bb | Bb | F | F | x2
                Bb
And there were future reflections

        F
On the face and the hands

      Bb
On a green colored island

      F
On a primitive man

            Bb
It was the future reflecting

         F
It felt familiar but new

              Bb
A street was missing a building

              F
The kids had something to do
[Chorus]
Gm                                   Dm
There was a feeling the spirit was leaving

            Asus4  Am
Red like a marker

G           F6
So my tribe, with my knife

Cm                    Bb
Cut the heart from a lonely life
[Verse 2] | F | F | F | F | x2
Bb/F
I saw patterns on floorboards

 F
Deep in the dust was a leader

Bb/F
Someone was walking on floorboards

 F
Turning from oak into cedar

Bb/F
He can assess the situation

F
I wrapped a string around my finger

Bb/F
Into the forest with the young ones

F
I don't expect to be a winner
[Chorus]
Gm                 Em7b5
But as long as you feel it

         Dm
I'm a believer

             Asus4   Am
My heart is phosphor

G        F6
Sea rolls and death tolls

 Cm                      Bb
Break the surface don't break my bones

Gm         Em7b5
Off of the trail and

             Dm
Off of your hands and

        Asus4     Am
Onto a new plan

G          F6
Is the cost to stay lost

  Cm           Bb
Forever in an empty skin

Bm7b5
Pale and thin
[Outro]
F/C                       Bm7b5
If it's good, or if it's fortune, I can't tell

    Bbmaj7                         F/A
But pieces come together for some reason just as well

F/C
Their guns couldn't see us

          Bm7b5
There's a sea outside my door

Bbmaj7
And one day I'll appreciate

    F/A                    A/C#                   Dm      C
The rush of blood and the washed out beat of the shore

                      Bb           F
And remember what it felt like

        Dm        C
To be alone

                Bb          F
Sitting in the sunlight

      Dm     C    Bb    F
All alone
