Intro (with harmonica):
Am G Am G Am - Fmaj C G Am x2
[G]I heard a [Am]sound [G]when I was a [Am]child
[Fmaj]someone was [C]walking through the [G]pillow that [Am]night
the [G]snow [Am]muted the [G]pitch of [Am]night
[Fmaj]a shadow [C]approached across the [G]field in [Am]white
[G]it's only [Am]me [G]it's only [Am]me
and the [Fmaj]sound of my own [C]heart it [G]startled [Am]me
[G]as I d[Am]rifted from the [G]dark [Am]room
[Fmaj]face [C]lifted from the p[G]aper [Am]moon
[G]reflected [Am]in the [G]orbit [Am]bath
[Fmaj]he manages to [C]say before he [G]starts to [F]laugh
[E]you can't always [F]trust the [E]darkness and the [Dm]dust
[Esus4]but me I'm j[E]ust a[F] man it's more[G] than I can und[C]erstand
it's [G]only [C]me [G]its only [C]me
([Fmaj]Harmonica)[C][G][Am]
[G]The white [Am]noise [G]falls [Am]away
[Fmaj]to revea[C]l the [G]perfect [Am]day
[G]where roses [Am]bloomed out o[G]f thin [Am]air
[Fmaj]and music ro[C]se from down the [G]buried [Am]stairs
[G]it's only [Am]mine [G]it's only [Am]mine
[Fmaj]I grew it in the s[C]hade when the [G]sun couldn't [Am]shine
[G]now there's always [Am]someone [G]waiting at the [Am]mirror
[Fmaj]she stares like she [C]knows me [G]like a headlights [Am]deer
[G]and there's a [Am]twin in the [G]other [Am]room
[Fmaj]she's always [C]sowing and[G] singing her songs of [F]doom
[E]and at times I do[F]n't know w[E]hy tears come to my[Dm] eyes
[Esus4]and what if [E]I go [F]blind as they [G]flow out of my [Am]mind
[G]it worries [C]me [G]it worries [C]me
[Fmaj]that there's [C]someone on my [G]mind that I [F]don't see
[F]I close my eyes to [C]disappear into the [F]fields of stars [C]between my ears
[F]the dark as they [G]overlap we [F]follow one a[C]nother as we[G] fade to [F]black[E]
[F] [E] [Dm] [Esus4] [E]
[F] [C] [G] [C]it's[G] only [C]night [G]it's only [C]night[F][C][G][C]
[G]An ultraso[Am]und wh[G]en I was aliv[Am]e
[Fmaj]the shadows [C]go spying on the [G]ones in the [Am]wild
[G]they dip their [Am]arrows[G] into the [Am]sea
[Fmaj]they wash [C]their arms as the[G]y wait fo[Am]r me
[G]they wait for [Am]me they[G] wait for [Am]me
[G]hey wait for [Am]me hey[G] wait for [Am]me
