Intro: Dm C Bb Am
 Dm C Am Bb

Verse 1:
Dm            C                   Bb                  Am
As it gets dark in this house of hallways
Dm                  C       Bb                      Am
And no corridor leads to the stairs
Dm                   C                Bb         Am
With still wet black paint on all the windows
Dm       C                         Bb
We got no clocks ?cause time don?t care here


Pre–Chorus 1:
Bb              C                Dm
So tell me your name young noble stranger
Bb               C              Dm
And tell me just what we?re doing here
Bb              C                   Am
Have you painted walls with all the answers?
Gm                                 C
Have you hidden doors with all our fears?


Chorus:
                    Bb                        Am                   C
What he said is the soul?s rock hard but the hearts trapped underneath
        Bb             Am                               C
And the weight of it all gets enough just to crush the best out of you and me
      Bb                     Am                   Dm      Am     Bb
But I swear that there?s someone who cares here enough to set us free
           Bb                      C
And if the world don?t turn just enough to bring her honest then I guess we?re better 
off forgotten
Dm   C Am Bb
Dm   C Am Bb

Verse 2:
Dm                 C                    Bb    Am
The walls stay too thin in this house of hallways
Dm                   C             Bb    Am
They let through the echoes and the stares
Dm                       C                 Bb    Am
And they?ll bleed bright red with scribbled riddles
Dm                     C              Bb
Scratched out of their panels by angered air


Pre–Chorus 2:
Bb               C                   Dm
?Cause God knows I?ve made all my own choices
Bb             C                Dm
And if I drown alone its cause I choose
Bb          C                   Am
To spend my time drinking in the stairwells
Gm                                  C
When we?ve both got way too much to prove


Chorus:
           Bb                       Am                C
?Cause the soul?s rock hard but the hearts trapped underneath
           Bb                 Am                       C
And the weight of it all gets enough just to crush the best out of you and me
      Bb                     Am                  Dm       Am     Bb
But I swear that there?s someone who cares here enough to set us free
           Bb                                         C
And if the world don?t turn just enough to bring her honest then I guess we?re better 
off forgotten
