Intro: E5 / A5 / B5 / A5


Verse 1:
E5
I want something 
D5                     C#5
That's purer than the water 
E5
Like we were 
E5
It's not there now 
D5                C#5
In eloquence and anger 
E5
Are all we have 
E5
Like Saturn's rings 
D5           C#5     
An icy loop around me 
E5
Too hard to hold 
E5
Lash out first 
D5                    C#5
At all the things we don't like 
E5
Or understand 

Chorus:
                      C#5
And it's beginning to get to me 
                        B5
That I know more of the stars and sea 
                    A5     
Than I do of what's in your head 
                   E5
Barely touching in our cold bed 
                     C#5 
Are you beginning to get get my point 
                             B5
They're always fighting with aching joints 
                       A5
It's doing nothing but tire us out 
                       E5
No one knows what this fight's about 

Verse 2:
E5
The answer phone 
D5                   C#5
The lonely sound of your voice 
E5
Frozen in time 
E5
I only need 
D5                    C#5
The compass that you gave me 
E5
To guide me on 


                      C#5
And it's beginning to get to me 
                        B5
That I know more of the stars and sea 
                    A5
Than I do of what's in your head 
                   E5
Barely touching in our cold bed 
                     C#5
Are you beginning to get my point 
                             B5
They're always fighting with aching joints 
                       A5
It's doing nothing but tire us out 
                       E5 
No one knows what this fight's about 
                      C#5
It's so thrilling but also wrong 
                             B5 
Don't have to prove that you are so strong 
                    A5
Cos I can carry you on my back 
             E5
After our enemies attack 
                    C#5
I tried to tell you before I left 
                    B5
But I was screaming under my breath 
                            A5
You are the only thing that makes sense 
                     E5
Just ignore all this present tense 


E5 / A5 / B5 / A5

E5                     A5
We need to feel breathless with love 
    B5                      A5 
And not collapse under its weight 
    E5               A5
I'm gasping for the air to fill 
   B5                          A5
My lungs with everything I've lost 
   E5                  A5
We need to feel breathless with love 
    B5                       A5
And not collapse under its weight 
    E5               A5
I'm gasping for the air to fill 
    B5                         A5
My lungs with everything I've lost
