* = strum once [Intro] D D D D [Verse 1]
D                      F#
All of this turbulence wasn't forecasted

 G                 A
Apologies from the intercom

    D                      F#
And I am relieved that I'd left my room tidy

        G
They'll think of me kindly

          A           D
When they come for my things

G                          F#
They'll never know how I'd stared at the dark

        E
In that room, with no thoughts

       D#
Like a blood-sniffing shark

    G                    Bm
And while my dreams made music in the night

G
Carefully

      A        D     D    D    D
I was going to live
[Verse 2]
D                          F#
You wouldn't leave till we loved in the morning

      G                       A
You'd learned from movies how love ought to be

    D                         F#
And you'd say you love me and look in my eyes

      G
But I know through mine you were

A          D
Looking in yours

G                            F#
And did you know the liberty bell is a replica

E                      D#
Silently housed in its original walls

    G                       Bm
And while its dreams played music in the night

G
Quietly

       A         D    D    D    D
It was told to believe
[Verse 3]
D*                 F#*
I always wanted to die clean and pretty

    G*                 D*      A*
But I'd be too busy on working days

   D*                     F#*                   G*
So I am relieved that the turbulence wasn't forecasted

                A*         D*
I couldn't have changed anyways

G                      F#
I am relieved that I'd left my room tidy

E7       D#    D*
