Intro: Drumbeats
Verse 1:
[F] Let's call this the quiet [Dm]city
Where screams are felt
as a wave of s[Bb]toplights
Drive through the s[C]treets as
gunshots punctuate the [F]night
The sides we [Dm]take divide
us from [Bb]our faith
And the [C]morning dove gets
caught in the telephone [Dm]wire
As[F]leep you set the [Dm]fire
in [Bb]your [C]own [Dm]house[F]
And the night was
a [Dm]knife that [Bb]cut
And [C]I'm para--
Chorus 1:
--[Dm]lyzed
[Bb]Cross out the [Dm]eyes
[Bb]Blur all the [Dm]lines
[Bb]Tearing this [C]canvas
from the [Dm]wall
We [Bb]crossed out the [Dm]eyes
Put [Bb]lines through these [Dm]cries
We [Bb]pulled all the [C]leaves
from the trees that [Dm]fall
(your trees that fall
your trees that fall
your trees that fall
your trees that fall)
Verse 2:
[F] A silent dance that we
[Dm]did into this hospital [Bb]bed
Hear voices from another [Dm]room
"It happens all the [F]time"
but you leave in the [Dm]sand
the leaves fal[Bb]len
counting down days to [C]live
Drain the blood
from this valen[F]tine![Bb]
"We can [Dm]rise on the
wings of [Bb]the dove
See blue s[Dm]kies getting caught
in the trail of all this s[F]moke[Bb]
We can [Dm]rise like candles in
[Bb]the dark-yours always"
[C] and an envelope marked with
your new ad[Dm]dress
As[F]leep you set the [Dm]fire
in [Bb]your [C]own [Dm]house[F]
And the night was
a [Dm]knife that [Bb]cut
And [C]I'm para--

We [Bb]pulled all the [C]leaves
from the trees that [Dm]fall
Bridge:
[Bb](Cross out the eyes!)
(Blur all the lines!)
[C](Cries!)
(Repeat)
Dm(hold)
Interlude:
[Am] your cries!!
Verse 3:
[Am] It was the first
time face to face
I'm crossing the line
Talking to the other
side of death
Hearing the words that choke
memories into flatlines
I'm calling your name
hoping for something
to wash these dreams
of you away
(till we [Dm]die![Bb])[Dm][Bb][Dm][Bb][C--]
(memo[Dm]ries[Bb] in flat[Dm]lines!)[Bb][Dm][Bb][C--]
Chorus 3:
[Dm] [Bb]Cross out the [Dm]eyes when
you [Bb]said all [Dm]these[Bb] [C] lies
[Dm] [Bb]Cross out the [Dm]eyes when
you [Bb]said all [Dm]these[Bb] [C] lies[Gm]
Outro:
[F]Fence was blown down in a
winter storm and this [Gm]field
(cross out the eyes!)
S[Dm]tretches out of this
world into the [Gm]sound
(A trace of!)
[F]What can we do put a stop to
the coming white [Gm]days
(In a love song!)
I'm [Dm]hoping for something to wash
C(hold)
these dreams of you away
(Stretches out of this world
Lets drive back the dead
Stretches out of this world
Stretches out of this world)
