[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G
There is no great thing, to stop and sing 
G
Waiting for the rain 
G
And this perfect pill, it's all too much
G              C  Em D                 C  Em D  D  G
                -  -                    -  -  -  - 
On the edge again,          don't look away  
G
Couldn't help but note the coldest thing
G
In your precious face  
G
Why do you always speak when you have no grace 
G
In your precious face 
[Chorus]
C        Em            D
But even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone 
C             Em                   D
But these hot gates you spent your victory on though your swore you wouldn't do this anymore 
C              Em          D
And I can't be for you all of the things you want me to  
C                   Em                 D
But I will love you constantly There's precious little else to me 
    Em      D           G             Em D  G
                                       -  -  
And though we cry, we must stay alive 
[Verse]
G
Another fragile edge, and a tender sound 
G
And then you went aground
G
Near a duller blade, a promise out of sight
G
There's nothing here for you tonight 
[Chorus]
C        Em            D
But even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone 
C             Em                   D
But these hot gates you spent your victory on though your swore you wouldn't do this anymore 
C              Em          D
And I can't be for you all of the things you want me to  
C                   Em                 D
But I will love you constantly There's precious little else to me   
[Bridge]
    Em        D            G
And though we cry, we must stay alive 
        Em        D               G
Let my blood only run out when my world decides
         Em     D           G
There is no way out of your only life
       Em       D
So run on, run on
