Intro: Em, D, Am, D
                     Em D                       Am                D
If you listen just right, you can almost hear it

                     Em D                 A             D
The symphony of secrecy, life, and fear
(the search for love, but finding fear)
Em                                     B                                   D
Like a moth to the flame we become helpless

             Am          D
To the beautiful ghost 

         B
That true love sheds.

                   Em        D               A        D
We all are running our very own races,

                 Em D                           A         D
Set out upon the most dangerous of places.

       Em
Are through it all,

                    D                                       A
We are left with a void in our chests,

                             D
We're aching to fill

        D         D            Em             B
The doves come to gather our every need,

         D             D       Em
They lift them up to Heaven

B                                           Em                    D
Through the mouths from which we speak.

Em  D                        Am                         D                   Em
God will you help us understand the meaning of it all?

               D                             A                   D                   Em
Will you send your angels down to us at our every call?

                        B                         D     D
Sometimes it seems the world is passing us

Em                     B
Faster than my eyes can adjust.

                Em  D                  A        D
I can't decide if I'm living or I'm dying,

        Em                            D       
So I test your love and I test your love,

  A                     D
I test your love.

        D         D            Em             B
The doves come to gather our every need,

         D             D       Em
They lift them up to Heaven

B
Through us now....

        D         D            Em             B
The doves come to gather our every need,

         D             D       Em
They lift them up to Heaven

B                                           Em                    D      Em
Through the mouths from which we speak.

Em                                     B                                   D
Like a moth to the flame we become helpless

             A             D
To the beautiful ghost 

         B
That true love sheds.
