C                 Am                  C                   Am
come rebuild your memory with a small mountain of burning leaves
      C                       Em6               F
and a swinging wire door that slams shut like a guillotine
C                      Am
strum a note up in the wires
        C                       Am
to send bats down the river, seagulls around spires
    C                       Em6
and shred all the twilight, scatter it city-wide

 
F             D9/F#
those average angels
F                       D9/F#
the drunken saints with heavy heads
              F
they can keep dreaming, 
            Em             Fm         C
dreaming of sleep down the end of the bed

 
    F        Em         Fm               C
but nobody's ever gonna break your heart again...

(not 100 porcent on this bit, pick the chords) C F C Am G

 
C       Am                           C
and the high-pitched, crooked thoughts
     Am                     C
that ricocheted off the walls
         Em6                  F                         C
she just set them down quiet, safe in her dresser drawer
         C                        Am
she laid me out on the laundromat floor
                C                     Am
and said you'll be not nearly who you were anymore
         C                 Em6
and i'll always be here to remind you what time is for
F                 D9/F#
and those average angels
F                             D9/F#
the drunken saints with heavy heads
F                                            D9/F#
you see their spirits are cowering under the table
F
and they're still counting, 
             Em      Fm          C
counting the breaths under their breath

 
    F        Em   Fm   C
but nobody's ever...
F        Em         Fm                    C     
nobody's ever gonna break your heart again...
