Intro: D riff (x2)

D                         Fm
And the torches, have been passed
                 Em
shimmering like bourbon coloured glass
    G5                         Em                    D
what time slips through the cracks, and out of reach 
                                  Fm
and all the things, you've ever learned
           Em
never taught you what you deserve
G5              Em                        D
pages full of words, that you can't speak

                    G riff
and all got are your high high highs
        G riff
and your low low lows
        G           G5                   
and everything else, just comes and goes

D riff (x2)

D                             Fm           Em
and all your sermons have been led, the sirens are all dead
            G5             Em                  D
the songs clinging to the wind, and blown away
                                     Fm
and all of the friends, have come and gone
                Em
none of them staying 'round long
   G5          Em                   D
too scared of what you might let in 

                           G riff
they'll just leave you with high high highs
   G riff
and low low lows
        G           G5                   D
and everything else, just comes and goes

Bridge :

     G          B5              A
and old heart, high from being good
  G                                 B5      A       G        
so open your windows, let in this bright, guilty, world

D riff (x2)

         D               Fm         Em 
And the torch has been passed, don't let it slip your grasp
      G5             Em                   D
just hold it high enough so you might see
                                  Fm
theres nothing wrong with being afraid
        Em
if it helps you find your way
       G5                 Em              D
if it makes you want to say, come love me 

                    G riff
and get rid of those high high highs
         G riff
and those low low lows
       G            G5                   D
and everything else, just comes and goes

                    G riff
and get rid of those high high highs
         G riff 
and those low low lows
      G           G5                   D
and anything else, just comes and goes
