[Verse 1]
Fm G# Eb Fm
Sometimes I walk mysterious places
G# Eb
Hear voices that talk without a word to say
Fm G# Eb Fm
Sometimes I hear the echoes of laughter
G# Eb Fm
In the twilight of affairs and other tragedies

Fm G# Eb Fm
A half-moon away, way too close to heaven
G# Eb
She had the look, but no morality
G# Fm G# Eb Fm
Sometimes it's easy to forget only for a moment
G# Eb
But there are nights you regret eternally
Bbm Fm
Whatever frozen hearts can do
C# Eb
Will melt the ice away
[Chorus]
Fm C#
How you know what it's like
Eb Fm
When good luck has changed the sides
C# Eb
And no sun shines in the dark and no angels
Fm C#
Ever hear your prayers in the night
Eb Fm
When your fears come up your spine
C# Eb
When your life turns upside down it breaks your heart
C# C
When you get crushed in a house of cards

It's so hard to find a way when life is in pieces

And the taste of a kiss is so bittersweet

But the man who'll rise up from the ashes is no one else but me

I'm standing in a waterfall
C# Eb
To wash the lies away
[Chorus]
