Emwhoa whoa wAmhoa oh
Emwhoa whoa wChoa oh
GHow come you never Cgo there
GHow come I'm so aAmlone there
Emwhoa whoa wAmhoa oh
Emwhoa whoa wChoa oh
GHow come you never Cgo there
GHow come I'm so aAmlone there
EmI went up to a wiAmndow
EmLightning banging on the cCymbals
GI ripped into the nCight
GCame storm into your Aeyes
EmMy horse had worked the fAmields too long
EmMy bear had lost its iCnnate calm
GIt's true enough we're not at pCeace
GBut peace is never what it Aseems
EmOur love is not the lAmight it was
EmWhen I walk inside the dCark I'm calm
GWhere we look for where we wCent
GIt's only echoes in the mAmelody
Emwhoa whoa wAmhoa oh
Emwhoa whoa wChoa oh
GHow come you never Cgo there
GHow come I'm so aAmlone there
Emwhoa whoa wAmhoa oh
Emwhoa whoa wChoa oh
GHow come you never Cgo there
GHow come I'm so aAmlone there
EmWe waste time on blame and Amweak revenge
EmWaste energy and prCojections
GWe're living proof, we gotta Clet go
GAnd stop looking through the hAalo
EmWe carry on as if our Amtime is through
EmYou carry on as if I dCon't love you
GAnd so we find the way is Cout
GTo cut the heart out of the doAubt now
EmThe room's full but hearts are Amempty
EmLike the letters never sCent me
GWords are like a laCsso
GYou're an instrumental tAmune

I went up to a window

Em C

Lightning banging on the cymbals

G C

I ripped into the night

G A

Came storm into your eyes

Em Am

My horse had worked the fields too long

Em C

My bear had lost its innate calm

G C

It's true enough we're not at peace

G A

But peace is never what it seems

Em Am

Our love is not the light it was

Em C

When I walk inside the dark I'm calm

Where we look for where we went

It's only echoes in the melody

Waste energy and projections

G C

We're living proof, we gotta let go

G A

And stop looking through the halo

Em Am

We carry on as if our time is through

Em C

You carry on as if I don't love you

G C

And so we find the way is out

G A

To cut the heart out of the doubt now

Em Am

The room's full but hearts are empty

Em C

Like the letters never sent me

G C

Words are like a lasso

G Am

You're an instrumental tune
