Tom: C
G F
There's a heart left sleepless,
C G F C
by the angry bed frame just up the stairs,
G F
thoughts that knock the skull numb,
C G F C
of an inamorata extraordinaire,
G F
alone in exploration,
C G F C
inebriated by every inch so new,
G F
drunk lovers,
clearly still lovers,
C G F
clearly still drunk too
[Chorus]
F
climbing footsteps,
F
and passing laughter...
F
if only echoes amounted,
C G/B Am
hold onto the doorframe,
C
because these old bones
F
have seen more than the days
that they've counted...
C G F x2
C G F C
Sounds like a coyote on the roof,
G F C
the lights flicker off and on again,
G F C
even after in the silence,
C G F
the turmoil is metropolitan
[Chorus]
F
climbing footsteps,
F
and passing laughter...
F
if only echoes amounted,
C G/B Am
hold onto the doorframe,
C
because these old bones
F
have seen more than the days
that they've counted...
C G F
Strange how we sometimes envy each other's weaknesses...
