[Verse 1]
GI will Dhang on the Emhook of your Csplender
GAs the Dnight rolls us Emup in its Carms
GAnd the Dsquare of your Emthumbs and your Cfingers
GIs the Dblanket of Emsky that's so Cwarm
GI know it's Dlate but I Emcan't help but Cthink it
GThat the Dday hasn't Emshown all its Ccards
GNow it's Dup to the Emstars or the Cocean
GLet's not Dretrace our Emsteps to the Ccar
[Chorus]
EmPicking out all the Cstars that we like between
GFinger and Cthumb
EmYou laugh as you Cpass me the night as if it's
GToo fragile to Chold
EmAnd I hold so Cclose to my chest with your
GHands in my Chands
EmYou say this is Cjust how we rest until the,
the Gland turns to Csand
[Verse 2]
GNow your Deyelids they Emfaint and they Cshiver
GLike the Dwings of the Emlast bird to Cleave
GFor the Dsouth, for the Emheat, for no Creason
GAt Dall, just to Emfly for sheer Cjoy
GThe Dwind shakes the Embranches abCove us
GAnd the Dcar shakes the Emground at our Cbacks
GBut the Ddark roman Emwine in our Cbloodstreams
GMakes the Dcold just a Emword, just a Csound
[Chorus]
EmPicking out all the Cstars that we like between
GFinger and Cthumb
EmYou laugh as you Cpass me the night as if it's
GToo fragile to Chold
EmAnd I hold so Cclose to my chest with your
GHands in my Chands
EmYou say this is Cjust how we rest until the,
the Gland turns to Csand

by Snow Patrol

Lyrics & chords · Original key

[Verse 1]

G D Em C

I will hang on the hook of your splender

G D Em C

As the night rolls us up in its arms

G D Em C

And the square of your thumbs and your fingers

G D Em C

Is the blanket of sky that's so warm

G D Em C

I know it's late but I can't help but think it

G D Em C

That the day hasn't shown all its cards

G D Em C

Now it's up to the stars or the ocean

G D Em C

Let's not retrace our steps to the car

[Chorus]

Em C

Picking out all the stars that we like between

G C

Finger and thumb

Em C

You laugh as you pass me the night as if it's

G C

Too fragile to hold

Em C

And I hold so close to my chest with your

G C

Hands in my hands

Em C

You say this is just how we rest until the,

G C

the land turns to sand

[Verse 2]

G D Em C

Now your eyelids they faint and they shiver

G D Em C

Like the wings of the last bird to leave

G D Em C

For the south, for the heat, for no reason

G D Em C

At all, just to fly for sheer joy

G D Em C

The wind shakes the branches above us

G D Em C

And the car shakes the ground at our backs

G D Em C

But the dark roman wine in our bloodstreams

G D Em C

Makes the cold just a word, just a sound

[Chorus]

Em C

Picking out all the stars that we like between

G C

Finger and thumb

Em C

You laugh as you pass me the night as if it's

G C

Too fragile to hold

Em C

And I hold so close to my chest with your

G C

Hands in my hands

Em C

You say this is just how we rest until the,

G C

the land turns to sand
