This song is actually John K Samson's.
F              Eb                          Bb                 
An open window shows the stars shine well up there

F                      Eb            Bb
I clear my throat to hear some sound

F                         Eb             Bb
And think of falling out into the open air

F                   Eb               Bb
Blue-black sky and cold, familiar ground

F                    Eb             Bb
Something always pulls me back

F                  Eb             Bb
Something always pulls me back

F            Eb               Bb      F         Eb       Bb
Something always seems to come along despite the, despite the

Gm              Eb             Bb             F
Blow up dolls of superheroes, sad sound-bitten lives

Gm              Eb                  Bb             F
These crowded streets of empty faces, loneliness and lies

Gm     Bb                    F         Eb
I'm waiting for some sympathetic smile

Gm        Bb            F               Eb
I'm confident it's just another mile….ah ah ah
F Eb Bb F I stay up thirty hours waiting for a sign Stilted sunlight pulled through old, venetian blinds Lost cause, a pregnant pause, a shiver when I wake To perseverance wearing thin through all the noise I make
