_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ [F#] That is [E] the biggest fear I [B] suppose, _ is [E] that when you stop believing [G#m] in you and you stop
being real to [F#] you, then [E] you just stop _ [B]
being_
_ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [G#m] _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [E] _ _ [B] Desolation.
_ _ [E] Desolation.
_ _ _ [B] _

_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [G#m] _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [B] _ _ They say that God is in the detail and [F#] I'm sure [Em] that's true.
[B] _
I run my thumb [G#m] across _ Egyptian stone and [F#] the [B] images come through.
I see the bird, I see the dark, feel the weather [F#] deep [B] inside my shoes.
I see the light [G#m] upon my hand as I [F#] receive _ [E] uncertain [B] news.
Suddenly [G#m] I realize [B] I'm living a lie my [F#] father [E] planned for [B] me.
With the sun [G#m] beating on [E] my back I see [G#m] I am the [F#] lonely man of [E] Galilee. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And if [B] I ride my wheel [F#] across the shattered [E] _ stone, _ _ _
_ _ _ _ will [G#m] I ever see [F#] the bleaching of the [E] _ _
_ _ _ bones
of _ _ [B] the boy I used [F#] to be when I still [E] _ sang? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G#m] Before I lived in fear [F#] of dying on [E] my _ own,
_ _ I [F#] cannot die [E] alone. _ _ _ _
And I [G#m] _ miss my [F#] baby, _ _ [B] I miss him [E] all through the [F#] night.
[G#m] Gonna kill my [F#] baby _ _ [B] and stars are [Em] shining bright. _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#] _ [E] _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [E] _ _ [B] I enter certain distant lands and see [F#] young women [E] [B] dying inside.
They hold young [G#m] children [E] by their [G#m] hand but luck [F#] is not [Em] on their [B] side.
Cold shards [E] of space rip through [B] their clothes and pierce [F#] the heart [E] that bears the [B] pain.
In grief and [E] bandages they walk a thousand [F#] miles [B] of dry rain.
If the wound [G#m] should bathe my feet _ [B] because she loves me [F#] and I'm not [E] even [B] there.
What does that city of [G#m] battle give me?
Emptiness I [F#] feel or [E] the power of [B] prayer.
All kinds of [E] power circle [B] me.
I raise my [F#] hand and [E] the world goes [B] blue.
But I see no [G#m] me in women's eyes.
I suffer like [F#] a child in [E] an empty room. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] And if I ride my wheel [F#] across the [E] shattered stone, _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G#m] will I ever see [F#] the bleaching [E] of the _ _ _ _ bones? _ _ _ _
[B] Of the boy I used [F#] to be when I still [E] sang? _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Before [G#m] I lived in fear [F#] of dying on my [E] _ _
own,
_ _ I [F#] cannot die [E] alone. _ _ _ _
And I [G#m] _ _ miss my [F#] baby.
_ _ [B] I miss him [E] all through the [F#] night.
Gonna [G#m] kill my [F#] baby _ _ [B] and stars are [Em] shining bright. _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [G#m] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [E] _ _ [B] On a ship the [G#m] sailors [E] are all [B] smiles but there [F#] is nothing [E] in their [B] eyes.
In fact their eyes are [E] dead but the [G#m] horror is that [F#] love [E] is their [B] disguise.
They turn to [E] talk among [B] themselves and I live in [F#] terror [E] of this [B] sound.
Their words [E] and cadence do [G#m] not match and I can [F#] smell blood in the [E] ground. _
_ _ _ _ And I [G#m] _
miss my [F#] baby.
_ _ [B] I miss him [E] all through the [F#] night.
Gonna [G#m] _
