Verse 
Am                           C 
Take yourself apart from me 
Am                C 
Down into a flame 
       Am 
You’re everything one could keep 
       Am                    Dm C 
You’re worn with every face 

Dm                                     Am 
Rapping like a scarecrow’s wings, you unwind 
     C 
I’m thrown to a seamless wave 
           G 
And it’s written on a sea of love 
         Am 
And It’s all I can leave you babe 
          F 
‘Cos the world was never yours 
              C                     G 
I just keep playing that restless haunt 
        Am 
Nothing I can change 

Am 
Swallow what’s still brave in you 
      Am 
Like metal in your jaw 
Am 
Trying not to melt away 
Am 
Beginning to unthaw 

Dm                            Am 
Dead flag, ship of fools you command 
      C 
I’m trying not to wither away 
         G 
And I’m wondering if I’ll feel the grace 
      Am 
I’m trying to unlove this world 
    F 
But it has no other place 
               C                G 
I just keep playing that empty hand 
        Am 
Nothing I can cheat

Verse 
    Am 
Can you touch 
Am       C 
Can you stay 
            G   C    Am 
Would you weep, for the day 
                    F 
You knew when your eyes closed 
                             Am 
But you knew when your eyes closed 
     Am 
Can you want 
     C 
Can you stay 
       G            Am 
Would you reach, around me 

C G Am F 
C G Am 

Outro 
Am 
Light another melody 
     Am 
And drown into the sound 
      Am 
I’ve buried every living thing 
Am 
Deeper than the ground
