Intro: Drumbeats
Verse 1:
F Dm Let's call this the quiet city
Where screams are felt
Bb as a wave of stoplights C Drive through the streets as F gunshots punctuate the night Dm The sides we take divide Bb us from our faith C And the morning dove gets Dm caught in the telephone wire F Dm Asleep you set the fire Bb C Dm F in your own house
And the night was
Dm Bb a knife that cut C And I'm para--
Chorus 1:
Dm --lyzed Bb Dm Cross out the eyes Bb Dm Blur all the lines Bb C Tearing this canvas Dm from the wall Bb Dm We crossed out the eyes Bb Dm Put lines through these cries Bb C We pulled all the leaves Dm from the trees that fall
(your trees that fall
your trees that fall
your trees that fall
your trees that fall)
Verse 2:
F A silent dance that we Dm Bb did into this hospital bed Dm Hear voices from another room F "It happens all the time" Dm but you leave in the sand Bb the leaves fallen C counting down days to live
Drain the blood
F Bb from this valentine! Dm "We can rise on the Bb wings of the dove Dm See blue skies getting caught F Bb in the trail of all this smoke Dm We can rise like candles in Bb the dark-yours always" C and an envelope marked with Dm your new address F Dm Asleep you set the fire Bb C Dm F in your own house
And the night was
Dm Bb a knife that cut C And I'm para--
Chorus 2:
Dm --lyzed Bb Dm Cross out the eyes Bb Dm Blur all the lines Bb C Tearing this canvas Dm from the wall Bb Dm We crossed out the eyes Bb Dm Put lines through these cries Bb C We pulled all the leaves Dm from the trees that fall

Interlude:

your cries!!Verse 3:
Am
It was the first time face to face
I'm crossing the line
Talking to the other
side of death
Hearing the words that choke
memories into flatlines
I'm calling your name
hoping for something
to wash these dreams
of you away
Dm Bb Dm Bb Dm Bb C--
(till we die!)
Dm Bb Dm Bb Dm Bb C--
(memories in flatlines!)
Chorus 3:
Dm Bb Dm Cross out the eyes when Bb Dm Bb C you said all these lies Dm Bb Dm Cross out the eyes when Bb Dm Bb C Gm you said all these lies
Outro:
F Fence was blown down in a Gm winter storm and this field
(cross out the eyes!)
Dm Stretches out of this Gm world into the sound
(A trace of!)
F What can we do put a stop to Gm the coming white days
(In a love song!)
Dm I'm hoping for something to wash C(hold) these dreams of you away
(Stretches out of this world
Lets drive back the dead
Stretches out of this world
Stretches out of this world)
