Intro: G
Verse 1:
[G]Give up the ghost
[C]Hold me [G]close
[G]Sing me the song that [C]you love [G]most
[G]The words hang like [D]diamonds with [Em]music inside [C]them
[Em]Colliding in [C]time with your mouth
[G]Find me alone
[C]Walk me [G]home
[G]Show me a world [C]I've not yet [G]known
[G]The buildings are [D]breathing they [Em]cry while they're [C]sleeping
[Em]We're hurting their [C]feelings somehow
[C]So send an [D]apology made of technology
[Em]Bricks turn to circuits [C]instead
[C]Sing like a microphone, [D]talk like a telephone
[Em]Watch like a film in your [C]head
[C]Bleed like a needle
Don?t [D]listen to people, they [Em]only say things so that [C]something gets said
[C]Cough like a cigarette
[D]Turn like a tourniquet
[Em]Burn like a fire truck, [C]red
[C]Sleep like a pillow and [D]wake like a window
In [Em]winter with snow-covered [C]ledge
[C]The birds will return soon to [D]bend round your bedroom
[Em]While radios talk to the [C]dead
[C]Will you dream like bed, dream like a bed[G]
(Pause)
Verse 2: (repeat previous chord pattern)
Whisper and speak
Touch my cheek
Show me the smile that makes me weak
Cars crash whenever we kiss everything vanishes
Sweetness is all I feel
Write on my hand
Understand
Breathe in the way only you can
You know that you are both the love note caught in my throat and the hope that it?s real
So end like a funeral send out the usual static release from your lungs
Swallow like medicine I think you?re better that anything under the sun
Oh, life re-mystified
Oh, walking valentine
Oh, unimaginable love
Smoke like a factory, steal my identity
Sell it right back to me now
Break like tradition in need of revision
Transmissions will listen like sound
Think like a memory, warm and Septembery
Endlessly coming unwound
?Till you find yourself out with the graves in the ground
Tears rolling out of eyes as wet as a cloud
But it?s only the sound of your joy coming down
