CAPO 2

Intro: E5 A5

E5
She said look at the moon,
It's like a fingernail clipping
A5
A slippery light in the cold black sky
E5                                                                      A5
I gave her my coat, held her close and she cried
E5
As the sun came up over the jagged skyline,
A5
The silence amplified our beating hearts
E5                                                               A5
And I didn't answer when she asked why

Chorus:
F#5
One life to live
Many paths to take
A5
One twists and turns and falls away
E5
And flowers bloom in brilliant light
E5
And fade away into the night
F#5
So much to lose
Or so it seems
A5
These idle games and children's dreams
E5
How they confound and split the seams inside my mind
F#5
I just keep moving on into the unknown

E5
And I go walking alone near the St. Augustine bell
A5
And thinking about you since you went away
E5                                                                                 A5
We used to sit here and watch as the shadows played
E5
And if I try real hard, I can remember that sound
A5
Ringing out just like a clarion
E5                                                                     A5
Echoing off of the wall of the dark arcade

Chorus

C5
You know being alone feels like I'm holding my breath
A5
I try to be cool, I try to push it down
E5                                                                             B5
I walk like I know where to go on a Friday night
C5
And the city streets are the fangs of a beast
A5
Yeah it's always tired, but it never sleeps
E5
I cry with the silence, dance with the freaks
B5                                       F#5
Come on, I'm getting on into the unknown.
