[A] [B]
[E]
[A] We sleep together [B] while all around [E] us [F#m] people kill [E] each other where [A] they lie.
They lie together [B] till they find someone better, [E] [F#m] try and [E] negotiate that slow [A] demise.
But I just can't credit that [B] type of effort for [F#m] a piece of nothing [E] on the edge [A] of a knife.
Slices you so thin, you [B] dry like sheets in the wind.
[F#m] Hold a candle [E] behind, through you see [A] the light.
[C#m]
[C#]
I want this [E] song, I can sing forever, I don't [C#m] care for structure, just to know it's mine.
[B] I'd hate to [E] see this thing we've developed [C#m] become your burden or my [E] waste of time.
[F#m] My waste [F#] of time.
[A] [E]
[A] [C#m] [B] [E]
[A] The afternoon [C#m] can [E] break with its shallow notes but [F#] I'd jump a harbour, [E] hold a clear mind.
[A] I'd quarter the [C#m] years, you'd [B] drop the sails to work with.
[E] I'll [F#] look for a tomb [E] at the stars in [A] the night.
History tells [B] us some worlds we'll learn nothing of, [F#] then retrospect [E] becomes a shackle untied.
We're all [A] the ankles of a [B] stone, in the future we trust, [F#m] we cross our fingers like [E] some [A] kids telling lies.

I want this song, I [E] can sing forever, I don't [C#m] care for structure, just [F#] to know [C#m] it's mine.
[B] I'd hate to see [E] this thing we've developed [C#m] become your burden [B] or my waste [E] of time.
I [B] wanna know that I know what I'm talking about, [C#m] until I do along it [C#] won't [A] seem right.
But [B] when I'm sure [C#m] that I know [E] what I'm talking about, I'll [C#m] take your burden if you [E] say it's mine.
[F#m]
You say [F#] it's mine.
