[F#m]I like looking at the sky as the wind plays [E]through
The skirts of the trees the [F#m]silence knows how [E]afraid we are of it
Cherished [A]memories[Bm] bleed and [F#m]bloom our [E]secrets like [A]seeds
get [Bm]swept up and carried [F#m]through our [E]neighbor[A]hood
Safe as houses [D]tuck me in
[A]Daylight [Bm]waits for [E]no man [F#m]you?re still [E]young
and breathing?s easy suck it [F#m]in
what a [A]waste this [Bm]facad[E]e
What a [A]pity we?ve [E]come this [F#m]far
[F#m] [E]
[F#m]The rain will fall and baptize our strongholds [E]our sheltered lives
Closed [F#m]blinds drawn curtains and vinyl [E]floors can?t hide
Stained [A]memories bl[Bm]eed and [F#m]bloom our [E]secrets like [A]weeds
[Bm]Creeps up to the [F#m]roof of our [E]neighbor[A]hood
