Intro:
[E] [/] [A] [/] [B] [/] [A]
Verse 1:
[E]I want something
[D]That's purer than the [C#m]water
[E]Like we were
[E]It's not there now
[D]In eloquence and [C#m]anger
[E]Are all we have
[E]Like Saturn's rings
[D]An icy loop [C#m]around me
[E]Too hard to hold
[E]Lash out first
[D]At all the things we [C#m]don't like
[E]Or understand
Chorus:
And it's beginning to [C#m]get to me
That I know more of the [B]stars and sea
Than I do of what's [A]in your head
Barely touching in [E]our cold bed
Are you beginning to [C#m]get get my point
They're always fighting with [B]aching joints
It's doing nothing but [A]tire us out
No one knows what this [E]fight's about
Verse 2:
[E]The answer phone
[D]The lonely sound of [C#m]your voice
[E]Frozen in time
[E]I only need
[D]The compass that you [C#m]gave me
[E]To guide me on
And it's beginning to [C#m]get to me
That I know more of the [B]stars and sea
Than I do of what's [A]in your head
Barely touching in [E]our cold bed
Are you beginning to [C#m]get my point
They're always fighting with [B]aching joints
It's doing nothing but [A]tire us out
No one knows what this [E]fight's about
It's so thrilling but [C#m]also wrong
Don't have to prove that you [B]are so strong
Cos I can carry you [A]on my back
After our ene[E]mies attack
I tried to tell you [C#m]before I left
But I was screaming [B]under my breath
You are the only thing that [A]makes sense
Just ignore all this [E]present tense
[E] [/] [A] [/] [B] [/] [A]
[E]We need to feel breath[A]less with love
And [B]not collapse under its [A]weight
I'm [E]gasping for the [A]air to fill
My [B]lungs with everything I've [A]lost
We [E]need to feel breath[A]less with love
And [B]not collapse under its w[A]eight
I'm [E]gasping for the [A]air to fill
My l[B]ungs with everything I've [A]lost
