[A]
[C#] [E] [A]
Clouds that gather turn to rain
Candle on your sill burned [E] down
Weather [Em] on your [F#m] face
[G] Turn to match the [A] mood outside
Reading the poems that you say
That make the gloomy hours make [E] sense
Do they lose [F#m] their power [C#] with the [A] yellowing of age?
[D] I saw you [A] suffering through a foggy window [E] in the rain
When you thought no [F#m] one was watching
[D] Going through your [A] memories like so many prisons [E] to escape
Become [F#m] someone else [G] with another face, [D] another name
[A] No more suffering
You sold the best of yourself out
On a chain of grey and white lies
One silver at [F#m] a time
You should [G] have made them [A] pay a higher price
[D] [E] I saw [D] you [A] suffering through a cracked and dirty [E] windowpane
Was it a shame that [F#m] I was watching?
[D] [E] Going through [D] [A] a donation looking [D] for a [A] life [E] you could create
And become [F#m] somebody else instead
[G] With another [Em] face [D] and [A] another name
[E] No more suffering
I [Bm] wish that I could have the [D] seed and plant a tree that grows [A] so high
So that I could climb and harvest the ripe [Bm] stars
For you I'd [D] drink and spit the ashes from my [F#m] mouth
Put the grey back in the clouds
And send them packing with our [E] bags of old regrets and [A#] [E] sorrows
Cause they don't do a [A#] thing [E] to drag us [A#] down [Em] so far down
[A] The past is like a braided rope
Each moment tightly coiled inside
[D]
I saw you [A] suffering through the yellow window of a train Everybody [F#m] watching
[D]
Too tired for [A] imagining that you could ever love somebody [E] else
Each [F#m] moment's far away from [G] another [A] time
[D] In another place [Bm] with another life
[F#m] Another face [E] and another name
[A#] [E] No [A#] [E] [A]
more suffering
