Tabbed by: dukeandy

Intro: Am-E x2

Verse:
Am (x02210@1)                           
   These buildings are dead, I watched as they crumbled around me,
       Dm (xx0231@1)                                                 Am (x02210@1)   E (022100@1)  And things that I thought were important all fell from my head.
Am (x02210@1) 
   I stumbled, fell back, then pretty much stared in amazement,
       Dm (xx0231@1)                                                 Am (x02210@1)  Whilst feeling the long lost caress of a past that's come back.
E (022100@1)                           E7(hold) (020130@1)   Will you stop me when it's done?

Interlude
Am-Dm-Am-E-Dm-Am-E

Verse Chords as above:

The picture's blurred out, a wishy-washy reflection that's frayed
At the edges, And burned to a cinder is all I've made out.
So, just how could you tell? 'Cause I so thought my teary-eyed mask had you
Fooled for a second but we're dead on our feet in this spell.

E (022100@1)                           E7(hold) (020130@1)         Am (x02210@1)  Will you stop me when it's done? I'm falling apart.

C (x32010@1)                 E (022100@1)                  Am (x02210@1)  Or songs sung in tongues about you and me?
C (x32010@1)             E (022100@1)                      Am (x02210@1)  Old memories sacred that have faded to black?

Verse Chords as above (quieter):

This blueprint worked out to be everything we didn't want,
From beginning to end all we're left with is signs of self doubt.
And now we can see; with clear heads, and open eyes.
Horizons are laced with the poisons of all that can and can't be.

E (022100@1)  Will you stop me? Oh. Will you stop me? Oh.
                                        E7 (020130@1)               Am (x02210@1)  Please can somebody stop me when I'm done? I'm falling apart.
