CAPO III
EI went looking for someoAne I left beEhind 
Yeah but no-one just a Astranger did I Efind
I never noB7ticed hadn't seen it as it Agrew 
The void betEween us where the Aflame turns Eblue
EDifferent places, but they Aall look the Esame 
Dreams of faces in the Astreets devoured by Enames
I'm in colB7lision with every stone I ever Athrew 
And Eblind ambition where the Aflame turns Eblue 
EWords dismantled and Aall the books unbouEnd 
Conversations though we Autter not a Esound 
I heard a B7rumor don't know if it's Atrue 
That you'd Emeet me where the Aflame turns Eblue 
EOh, right now… (Arest of versEe instrumental)
E               A           E
B7                          A
E               B7          E
ESo I venture undernAeath the leaden Esky
See the freight train with its Aone fierce Eeye 
And then I B7listen as it tears the night in Atwo 
With a Ewhistle and the Aflame turns Eblue
EIn the morning I will singA  B7  E  
EIn the morning I will singA  B7  E  
EThrough the lemon trees the Adiamonds of Elight 
Break in splinters on the Apages where I Ewrite
That if I B7lost you I don't know what I'd Ado
EBurn forever where the B7flame turns Eblue
Yeah if I B7lost you I don't know what I'd Ado 
EBurn forever where the Aflame turns Eblue
EIn the morning I will sing A  B7  E  
EIn the morning I will singA  B7  E  
EIn the morning I will sing A  B7  E  
EIn the morning I will singA  B7  E
