Verse 1
=======
B                             E
   Did you crack the sky wide open
B                      E 
   To find what was in-side
B                          E 
   Is it not what you were hoping
B                          E 
   And not a case of do or die


Refrain 1
=========
E           F#        B                  E
    Did you cross the bridgeless gulf of chatter
E           F#  B                   E
    Did you say just one thing that mattered
E           F#        B             E
    Did you skate the cold water of reason
E               F#            B            E
    Make figure eights on the logic of its reason
E            F#    B     E
    Even the stars die

B   E


Verse 2
======= 
B                             E
    In the end what do things matter
B                        E
    God knows I'm not un-kind
B                                E
    I saw it sparkle and then sh-atter
B                         E
    God knows I've half a mind


Refrain 2
=========
E      F#        B                  E
    To cross the bridgeless gulf of chatter
E      F#  B                   E
    To say just one thing that matters
E      F#           B             E
    To skate on the cold water of reason
E               F#            B            E
    Make figure eights on the logic of its reason
E            F#    B
    Even the stars die 
E   
Die

B   E ...to fade
