Tom: F#
F# C# 2x
D#m C#
B A#m
[Verse 1]
F# C#
Been staring at the void too long
F# C#
My blue skies have turned black
D#m C#
And the creepers that you cut down
B A#m
From my walls have all grown back
[Verse 2]
F# C#
Tomorrow runs ahead just like
F# C#
An old way through the wood
D#m C#
Been trodden many times before
B A#m
But it's no clearer understood
[Chorus 1]
B F#
And where on earth it's taking us
B F#
And how we're meant to choose
B F#
When it forks around the bend
C# B
And either way we lose
[Verse 3]
F# C#
In my head I played the part
F# C#
Of the lover who was stung
D#m C#
An innocent abandoned
B A#m
In the dark when he was young
[Verse 4]
F# C#
But when I see more clearly
F# C#
Through the lies of my little play
D#m C#
I was just as much the wolf
B A#m
Out hunting for its pray
[Chorus 2]
B F#
Oh love I know I've let you down
B F#
And all the promises I've made
B F#
And with all that anger
C# B
I'll go to my grave
[Interlude]
F# C# 2x
D#m C#
B A#m
F# C# 2x
D#m C#
B A#m
B F# 3x
C# B
[Verse 5]
F# C#
I've travelled far off countries
F# C#
I've seen many far out things
D#m C#
But I've never left this man-shaped cage
B A#m
Or shaken off this skin
[Verse 6]
F# C#
Got a picture of the little boy
F# C#
As he reached towards the sun
D#m C#
But now more sand's gone through the glass
B A#m
Than there's still left to run
[Chorus 3]
B F#
And when the lamp is burning low
B F#
And the stitches slip their seams
B F#
Into that darkness
C# B
We'll go with our dreams
[Outro]
B F# 3x
C# F#
