Verse:
[D]Sunlight falls on your [G]hands
[C]As you type, j[G]ust something[Bb] in my h[C]ead
[D]standing in, this emp[G]ty space, your des[C]k is gone
the [G]wall still dark..fro[Bb]m where i[C]t when
Chorus:
[Bb]This position is not [C]open now for [G]applica[F]nts[G][F]
[Bb]the application forms got shreaded
[C]there were faulty wordin' in the documents
[G]I can still hear you laughin'
[F]coming up the rickity[C] stairs
[G]laughing as the springtime filled your lungs with [F]air[C]
[G]grey smoke hung out like patches in your hair[F] like fir[C]e
[Bb]like birds [C]inside a [G]bell
Verse:
I [D]break those prows in ba[G]ck of my mind
while t[C]he sun is out, no[G] it's still up a[Bb]nd the l[C]ight is shining
[D]the season push and pull en[G]ough to get us through
well my m[C]ind is open like a d[G]oor to an e[Bb]mpty ro[C]om
Chorus:
[Bb]This position is not [C]open now for [G]applica[F]nts[G][F]
[Bb]the application forms got shreaded
[C]there were faulty wordin' in the documents
[G]I can still hear you laughin'
[F]coming up the rickity[C] stairs
[G]laughing as the springtime filled your lungs with [F]air[C]
[G]grey smoke hung out like patches in your hair[F] like fir[C]e
[Bb]like birds [C]inside a [G]bell
Outro:
[C]if Somehow
[Am]I'd have known
[Am]i'd rather come down
with the s[C]hip
[C]than be without you
if only for the c[Am]hance
[Am]to hold you hand
to be your frien[C]d
[C]I never got there last time
i'd rather come[Am] down
[Am]in this
the [C]war is over, the war is over, the war is [Am]over
and I'm [Am]waiting in the sinking ships
[D] [G] [C] [G] [Bb] [C]
[D]If[G] o[C]nl[G]y I had known
If [Bb]only [C]I had [G]known
