Verse 1:
          D                    A
Saw it in braile come randomly pouring out

             C        G                  D
In a wave of black ice and nighttime and then

                 D                    A
In a fast moving storm with singalong thunderclouds

           C      G               D
The soft explosion of dayfall and then

Chorus:
           G                A
Orange and blue the fire is starting

           G                    A
Shimmering through the chemical garden

G         A
I am not alone

          G                    A
Stumbling through the chemical garden

Guitar Two plays this during the chorus:

Verse 2:Same chords
Behind these black eyes a story is playing out
Atop a cloudy hill the verdict is read
On every lip the sound of a feather falls
A wave of nighttime's electrical head
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
               C          G             D
Though I may refuse to see I'm suddenly shown

                C            G              D
Cut through the sweetest part to get to the bone
