E                        A    E
We stood together in the open field
E             A               F#m     
And heard the secret that the night revealed
B
Then we chased the lie
A                  E 
Racing through the sky

Can we untangle guilt or innocence?
How hard we torture this ambivalence
Night will bring no dawn
Where has power gone?

E                                        Am
For I'll steal your dreams while you are sleeping
                   E             B
And sell them for dust and cheap lust
E                                     Am
And I'll slit your hope while you are weeping
                   E          B
And wipe the blood clean with morphine
      E
Be my queen

A                  F#m           C#m
The wind howls the black clouds around the storm at sea
A               F#m         C#m
I'm dropping at too great a speed
E              A     C#m            F#m   
Come closer to me on your hands and knees
A            B
Alone in the kill zone

E                       A           E
How much is not enough, how much is through?
E             A           F#m
How long will I be getting over you?
B                       A            E
How much grief and sin 'til a heart caves in?
A            E          Am                 C#m      Am
'Til a heart caves in, 'til a heart caves in
