[Verse 1]
G C
I, I met you in the middle of a raincloud
D
I had just received the final blow, knockout
Am G
You, my smelling salt by way the sea
G C
Oh, it seemed, as though I'd finally re-attached this phantom limb
D
Twitching into place where it'd always been
Am G
Pins and needles felt like cotton
[Chorus]
Am Cadd9 G D#
Laugh because you know you're free for the time being
[Verse 2]
G C
In the dark, I can find my way because I feel the sparks
D
Surging from your fingers just like kind remarks
Am G
Telling me the day is coming soon
G C
Would you be my Freia with her apples, or the seventh seal
D
Signalling the rapture and a call to kneel
Am G
"No" we say, 'cause it's not coming
[Chorus]
Am Cadd9 G D#
Laugh because you know you're free for the time being
[Verse 3]
G C
I, I left you in the middle of a dustcloud
D
Hoping then to lose you like a ship in fog
Am G
But palms across the desert crossed the sea
G C
Were my last words not quite as sobering as my epitaph
D
Faint hymns and unuttered oaths, they line the path
Am G
But I'd like to bypass ruin
G C D Am G
Let's sing songs and spite the devil, spite the devil, spite him
[Outro]
