Verse:

Ds2 FM7 C Am
The selfish they?re all standing in line

Ds2 FM7 C Am
Racing and hoping to buy themselves time
                                               D(/Ds4), one bar
Ds2 FM7 C Am                                  |--2---2-2-2---2p3-2-2-2----|
Me I figure as each breath goes by            |--3---3-3-3---3---3-3-3----|
                                              |--2---2-2-2---2---2-2-2----|
G C D(/Ds4)        ->                         |--0---0-0-0---0---0-0-0----|
I only own my mind ->                         |---------------------------|
                                              |---------------------------|
Ds2 FM7 C Am                                     |   .   |   .   |   .
The north is to south what the clock is to time

Ds2 FM7 C Am
There?s east and there?s west and there?s everywhere light

Ds2 FM7 C Am
I know I was born and I know that I?ll die

G C D(/Ds4)
The in between is mine

G C D(/Ds4)
I am mine


Chorus:

G C D(/Ds4)
And the feeling gets left behind

G C D(/Ds4)
All their innocence lost in one time

G C D(/Ds4)
Significant behind the eyes

C C C C
There?s no need to hide

(play Intro, 1st and 4th repeats)
We?re safe tonight


Verse:

Ds2 FM7 C Am
The ocean is full because everyone?s crying

Ds2 FM7 C Am
The full moon is looking for friends at high tide

Ds2 FM7 C Am
The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow?s denied

G C D(/Ds4)
I only know my mind

G C D(/Ds4)
I am mine


Chorus:

G C D(/Ds4)
And the meaning gets left behind

G C D(/Ds4)
All their innocence lost in one time

G C D(/Ds4)
Significant behind the eyes

There?s no need to hide

We?re safe tonight
