not to be confused with the rock version from the Moolah Rouge album (2007).

[F#]B [244322]x24442
Intro
[B] [E] [B] [E]
Verse 1
[B] Did you crack the sky wide [E]open
[B] To find what was in-[E]side
[B] Is it not what you were [E]hoping
[B] And not a case of do or [E]die
Refrain 1
[E] Did you [F#]cross the [B]bridgeless gulf of [E]chatter
[E] Did you [F#]say [B]just one thing that [E]mattered
[E] Did you [F#]skate the [B]cold water of [E]reason
[E] Make figure [F#]eights on the [B]logic of its [E]reason
[E] Even the [F#]stars [B]die[E]
[B] [E]
Verse 2
[B] In the end what do things [E]matter
[B] God knows I'm not un-[E]kind
[B] I saw it sparkle and then sh-[E]atter
[B] God knows I've half a [E]mind
Refrain 2
[E] To [F#]cross the [B]bridgeless gulf of [E]chatter
[E] To [F#]say [B]just one thing that [E]matters
[E] To [F#]skate on the [B]cold water of [E]reason
[E] Make figure [F#]eights on the [B]logic of its [E]reason
[E] Even the [F#]stars [B]die
[E]Die
B E ...to fade
