G                      C               G      G 
Shed never stared too long at distant lights
G                      C                G     G   
She always kept the ones here close and bright

She met me in the darkness, reached out for my hand and said goodnight

G                       C              G   G
She?s constant like the ringing in my ears
G                       C             G    G
She?s drowning out the silence of my fears
-

I?ve looked for her reflection in all the pretty girls throughout the years 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Chorus:
C      D              Am      D             Am
She?s staring at the shadows dancing on the wall
          D                Am     D                 Am              G
She?s the New York City skyline bound to catch the heavens if they fall
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
G                     C                  G   G
She never signed her paintings with her name
G                 C                      G   G
She surrendered I love yous with bitter shame
-
  Bm                Am         Bm                 Am             G C G     
She echoed in the season and filled me with her sweet Italian rain

       G                C            G  G
She's burning like the fires of the sun
       G                   C             G  G
She's friday night when sundays almost done
-
       Bm              Am       Bm             Am           G C G  
She's fireflies and splinters long after the winter has begun
-
  Bm                Am     Bm                 Am
I see her wrapping ribbons somewhere down the hall
   Bm                    Am      Bm                Am              G C G 
She's a million simple answers waiting for your midnight drunken call

           G          C                  G   G  
She's the memory of something you can feel
        G             C                 G   G
She's hidden in the world that she conceals
       Bm                  Am      Bm          Am                  G C G
She's strength and every weakness beating in a heart you cannot steal

G                    C             G
She never shows the color of her eyes
G                    C             G
She's far away but closer than the sky
   Bm              Am       Bm              Am                  G C G
Im waiting in her footsteps if shes not the truth I'll take the lie
       Bm              Am    Bm              Am  
She's a water colored window far across the sea
       Bm              Am      Bm             Am                G C G
She's a burning neon spotlight shining on the things I cannot leave

   G                 C                 G  G
she never turns the light out for the moon
   G                 C                 G  G
she always shows up late when im too soon
          Bm             Am     Bm               Am             G C G   
She's the harmony in whisper singing along with all my sappy tunes

      G               C              G  G    
She's all the reasons why you run away
      G               C              G  G
She's all the reasons why you wanna stay
     Bm                Am       Bm               Am             G   
her tangled part of mystery is gonna bleed for someone else someday
-------------------------------------------------------------------
   D               Am     D             Am
I see her in the bedroom sleeping next to me
  D                     Am       D                    Am
She's enough grace and wisdom to set the whole world free
        D              Am      D             Am 
She's staring at the shadows dancing on the wall
          D     Am     D                  Am              G  C G G C G G
She's the NYC skyline bound to catch the heavens if they fall
