[A] [B] [F#m]
[B] [F#m] [E]
[F#m] I like looking at the sky as the wind [E] plays through
The skirts of the [F#m] trees, the silence knows
[A] How afraid we are of [E] it
[A] Cherished [Bm] memories, [D] [F#m] bleed and bloom
[E] Our [A] secrets like seas, [Bm] get swept up [F#m] and carried through
[E] Our [A] neighborhood, safe as outers
[D] Tuck me [A] in, [D] [A] [D] daylight waits [A] for no [F#m] man
You're [E] still young and breathing's easy
[F#m] Suck it in me, [A] what a waste [D] this [E] facade
[A] What a pity [E] we've [F#m] come this far
[E]
[A] [F#m] The rain will fall and baptize our [E] strongholds, our sheltered lives
[F#m] Closed blinds, drawn curtains, [A] vinyl floors can't [E] hide
[A] Sane memories, [Bm] [F#m] bleed and bloom
[E] Our [A] secrets like weeds, [Bm] creeps up [F#m] to the roots
Of [E] our [A] neighborhood, safe as [D] outers
Tuck me in, [A] daylight waits for [F#m] no man
You're [E] still young and breathing's easy
[F#m] Suck it in me, what [A] a waste [D] this [E] facade
[A] What a pity [E] we've [D] come this far
Our luscious [F#m] denial,
[E] our [Bm] devoured [D] minds
Our thoughts remain [F#m] impotent,
[E] our pillows [B] laid for [A] exile
Safe as [D] outers, tuck me in
[A] [D] Daylight [A] waits for no [F#] man
You're [E] still young and breathing's easy
[F#m] Suck it in me, what [A] a [D] waste this [E] facade
[A] What a pity [E] we've [F#m] come this far
[A] [D] [E]
[A] What a pity [Bm] we've [F#m] come this far
