Verse:
Fmaj7                                         Am
      When there was a fallen bird. Everybody stayed awake
                Fmaj7                         Am
      Everybody craned their heads. To see my changing shape
Fmaj7                                                     Am
      We must dance. Against a torchlight moon. Everybody knows it's true
Fmaj7
      Ship that sailed. On its deck we stand.
            Am
      And I comb my hair. Pray to see. Do not take us down.
Fmaj7                                                    Am
      We made of stone. But we are not hollow. Everybody knows it's true.

Chorus:
    Am
      Not in my life we must
      G5
      There, they're rich enough
      Am
      From the shadow to the tongue
      Fmaj7
      Everybody wants to burn
              G5                       Am           Fmaj7   Fmaj7
      But the cost is just the words I crucified my own
      Am
      Everybody knows it's true
