          Bm                    D         Em            Bsus4* Bm
Do you see rhythms in the ocean water when it reflects the moon?

Bm               D               Em                      Bm
If it hasn't already happened to you, it'€™s gonna happen soon

       Bm                    D           Em             Bsus4* Bm
Do the lines in your kitchen table only show you how to drown?

         Bm                 D                 Em                   Bm
And your mother's angst the day you were born, the day you cut her down
[Pre-Chorus]
    Bm* A            Em
You used to have me by the arm

      Bm* A          Em
You'd walk me up the darkest stairways

 Bm* A               Em
Gone too high, I'€™m way too far

     Bm* A      Em
I've no idea where you are
[Verse 2]
   Bm                          D
Do leaves fall down in perfect sentences?

   Em                 Bsus4* Bm
Do maggots crawl your name?

   Bm                     D
Do mirrors laugh at you behind your back?

            Em        Bm
Are you constantly ashamed?

   Bm              D                   Em               Bsus4  Bm
Do roots slither between your feet and chase you slowly to the sea?

   Bm                 D               Em                 Bm
Do tree branches bend down and ask you if you're finally ready?
[Pre-Chorus]
    Bm* A            Em
You used to have me by the arm

      Bm* A          Em
You'd walk me up the darkest stairways

 Bm* A               Em
Gone too high, I'€™m way too far

     Bm* A      Em
I've no idea where you are
[Chorus]
         Bm             D          Am    Em
When you turn, when you turn on me

                        Bm             D          Am   Em
Will I see you when you turn, when you turn on me?

                       F#maj7               D
Will I see you? When I turn around will you be there?

           Am                       Em
At the center of the world like you promised to be?

         F#maj7               D
Will you suddenly seem like a stranger?

        Am                     Em
I can't tell anymore what you want from me
[Verse 3]
          Bm                  D
Does your family think you're too far gone?

       Em               Bsus4* Bm
Do you wonder if they'€™re right?

        Bm                 D
Are you different than you used to be?

        Em                  Bm
Are you alone somewhere tonight?

       Bm                        D                         Em                      Bsus4* Bm
Do you think maybe you’re just a little afraid and haven't really done the serious thinking?

     Bm                       D                         Em                  Bm
Do I really need to hold your hand and walk you all the way up into the moonlight blinking?
[Pre-Chorus]
    Bm* A            Em
You used to have me by the arm

      Bm* A          Em
You'd walk me up the darkest stairways

 Bm* A               Em
Gone too high, I'€™m way too far

     Bm* A      Em
I've no idea where you are
[Chorus]
         Bm             D          Am    Em
When you turn, when you turn on me

                        Bm             D          Am   Em
Will I see you when you turn, when you turn on me?

                       F#maj7               D
Will I see you? When I turn around will you be there?

           Am                       Em
At the center of the world like you promised to be?

         F#maj7               D
Will you suddenly seem like a stranger?

        Am                     Em
I can't tell anymore what you want from me
