Intro: G7M     Bm  G7M 

G7M            
My love, I am the speed of sound
           Bm           G7M
I left them motherless, fatherless
                            Bb 
Their souls dangling inside-out from their mouths
         D
But it's never enough
       Bm   F# F#7
I want you

           D                
Carve your name across three counties
          Bm
Ground it in with bloody hides
      D
Their broken necks will lie in the ditch
         Bb                G
Till you stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it
D
Stop this madness
       Bm   F#  F#7
I want you

       D
I have waited with a glacier's patience
        Bm                     G7M
Smashed every transformer with every trailer
     D
Till nothing was standing
      Bm               G
Sixty five miles wide
Bb                     G
Still you are nowhere, still you are nowhere
Bm
Nowhere in sight
Bb
Come out to meet me
G
Run out to meet me
     D
Come into the light

Bb    G     D          
Bb    G     

          D 
Climb the boxcars to the engine, through the smoke and to the sky
G7M                                  Bm
Your rails have always outrun mine. So I...
            Em
Picked them up and crashed them down
     G
In a moment close to now
      G7M
Cause I miss, I miss, I miss, I miss
D               
I miss, I miss, I miss, I miss
          G7M                     Bm    
How d'you sigh yourself to sleep
     G7M            
When I'd rake the springtime
 D
Across your sheets

   G7M
My love, I am the speed of sound
           Bm           G7M
I left the motherless, fatherless
                            Bb
Their souls dangling inside out from their mouths
         D
But it's never enough

D                                     Bm         A
My love, I'm an owl on the sill in the evening
            G7M
But morning finds you
               Bm          Em
Still warm and breathing


G7M
This tornado loves you, this tornado loves you
D                                               G7M
This tornado loves you, this tornado loves you, 
G7M
This tornado loves you...
                     D
What will make you believe me?
