C#m G#m A B
C#m A G#
[Verse 1]
C#m
I find my answers in the
A
fringes of the night
C#m
When the buildings in the
A
distance barely hobble into
C#m
sight There was a certain
A
reassurance in the early
morning's charm Like the
C#m
cruelness in the world
A
could never do us any harm
[Chorus 1]
E
And we watched the sun
B
come up from our
A B/D# E A
comfortable delusions
[Instrumental]
C#m G#m A B
C#m A G#
[Verse 2]
C#m
She said your name and I
A
thought about our lives
C#m
Growing frail like fraying
A
cables on the high strung
C#m
powerlines Stately solemn
A
crosses on the edge of our
C#m
hometowns How they never
deign to wonder who
A
of us would stick around
[Chorus 2]
E B
But I'll be born anew
A B/D# E A
even if it is without you
[Chorus 3]
E B
I’ve been holding on the highest
C#m B
rung of a ladder that descends
A
to total darkness If I could
E B
just hold on write you one
C#m
more song Maybe I could
B
finally break that spell
A
Give you that long
B
overdue farewell
[Post Chorus]
C#m G#m A B
C#m A G# A G# A G# G#
[Verse 3]
C#m A
Saw my future in a trapezoid of light
C#m
Arcing downward from a lamppost on
A C#m
a cold Chicago night And the heat
A
that radiates will melt the falling
C#m
flakes of snow Before they can land
A
and dampen the sleeves of her winter coat
[Chorus 3]
E
And we’ll breathe
B
out our pasts like
A B/D# E A
escaping apparitions
[Chorus 4]
E B
I’ve been holding on the highest
C#m B
rung of a ladder that descends
A
to total darkness If I could
E B
just hold on write you one
C#m
more song Maybe I could
B
finally break that spell
A
Give you that long
B
overdue farewell
[Instrumental]
E A E A
[Chorus 5/Outro]
E
I could fill her ears with
B
all I’ve lived to tell
C#m
But let’s be honest
B A
honest with ourselves
E
I could fill her ears with
B
all I’ve lived to tell
C#m
But let’s be honest
B A
honest with ourselves
