[G]
Kiss was a lonely prayer When [D] you slipped it into my [C] mouth
Closed my eyes and [Am] held it in Then I exhaled it [G]
out
Glow of the downtown [D] lights Casting shadows across your [C] face
As if all the buildings [E] knew I could only know half
[Em]
I was a snake under your [D] flowers I just wanted to [C] disappear
To the understory of your [Am] beauty Never to [Em] reappear
There's a name written on your [D] cast Of the bruised and broken [C] bones
Tells everybody that you're me [E]
From the damages owed
[Am]
We heard a wave of [F] white noise Beneath the city [C] sleeping
I saw the train doors [D] closing I felt your sorrow [Am] deepen
Here in the asphalt [F]
meadows There's only one thing that [C]
glows
Finding the light through the [D]
concrete [G] [Em] Can't trample under our [C] feet
You [Em]
said all your bridges and [D] roads They all lead to an airport
[C]
Planes drifting off into the [Am] sky Always depart but never seem to [Em]
arrive
There in the early [D] hour Lying naked in your unmade [C] bed
I was thinking of how to tell [E] you What my ticket was
[Em] Your kiss was a lonely prayer [D] A single candle slowly burning [C] down
But the light in your light was [E] beautiful Then it's here and now
[Am]
We heard a [Dm] wave [F] of white noise Beneath the city [C] sleeping
I saw the train doors [D] closing I felt your sorrow [Am] deepen
Here in the [Dm] asphalt [A] [F]
meadows There's only one [Dm] thing that [C]
glows
Finding the light through the [D] concrete [Em] Can't trample [A] under our feet
We heard a [D] wave of [F] white noise Beneath the city [C] sleeping
I saw the train doors [G] closing I felt your sorrow [A] deepen
Here in the [D] asphalt [F]
meadows There's only one [Dm] thing that [C]
glows
Finding the light through the [D] concrete [C] Can't trample under our feet
[D] Can't trample [G] [C] under our feet Can't trample [D] under our feet
[G] [C] Can't trample under our feet
