Intro: D, Bm, A

D (xx0232@1)  It's always blue and black or breaking skin,
                                          BmWell (x24432@1)cover up girl we'll finally leave again.
           AAnd (x02220@1)you breath me in so well,
DIn (xx0232@1)your room under the cover of this night.
                               BmWe (x24432@1)are safe; we are, as long as you whisper.
         ABut (x02220@1)my eye was caught by your picture.
AThat's (x02220@1)hanging from your mirror,
                           BmLike (x24432@1)something you forgot.
                                                          AI'll (x02220@1)say that we couldn't sleep just staring at the clock.
                                                          BmBut (x24432@1)when numbers seem to blur and the reflection is lost.    
                                            A (x02220@1)                                    
Anything is love as you stare into your box.
DSo (xx0232@1)now we're used to the rain.
                                   BmWe (x24432@1)can swim and I'll say we were, never worried.
            A (x02220@1)                       DBecause (xx0232@1)the floods will only bring the coast, and Atlantic closer.
BmI (x24432@1)thought I told you girl.
           AI (x02220@1)thought I showed you the reason.
That all I truly want is to get in your head.
AAnd (x02220@1)steal your imagery.
                  BmSo (x24432@1)we can both go to your second story house.
                              AYou (x02220@1)would never believe this snow.
It's so heavy on our lungs.
Bm (x24432@1)                                                     A (x02220@1)                        
But it's creeping up your walls and closing down the roads.
But I swear I'm loving while.
                     Bm (x24432@1)                    AI (x02220@1)swear I still will hide away from the cold.

D"I (xx0232@1)think that for me, everyday would be the last day of summer.
Or I'd be left out in the cold, with no place to go.
Bm (x24432@1)                                             ABecause, (x02220@1)there are very few people that I can relate to
                                    Dto (xx0232@1)every day of my life, forever, that will understand me,
Because I've gone places where very few people ever go.
BmI (x24432@1)mean, I played the ultimate gamble of all; I gambled my life."
A"You're (x02220@1)fine, go back to work and we'll let you know when she comes.".

Interlude: A, Bm (Leave the E string ringing)

A (x02220@1)                                                       Bm (x24432@1)      I swear we're almost there and we'll be safe inside
A (x02220@1)                                                              Bm (x24432@1)      Down those stairs to your room where I could stay for days
A (x02220@1)                                                   Bm (x24432@1)       Substance is over us, please don't do this
A (x02220@1)                                                                 Bm (x24432@1)      'Cause this may never change, oh, but I'm still here, here
                         A (x02220@1)      It's all the same
