INTRO:  Dm C G (2x) 

VERSE 1: 

Dm              C              G 
Thundering news hits me like a snowball 
            G9  
striking my face and shattering 
Dm               C                G 
Covering me in a fine powdery and mist 
           G9 
and mixing in with my tears 
        Dm                C                    G 
And I'm fifty-seven but I could be seven years old, 
             G9 
Cause I will never be able 
   Dm               C  
to comprehend the expansiveness 
   G  
of what I've just learned, that... 

 

C         G/B  Am7 
You, have disappeared 
    Am/G        F9   F 
You have been released 
                  Gsus4 
You are flecks of light 
        G 
You are mist 

Somewhere, spinning round the sun 
Circling the moon 
Traveling through time 
You are mist 

VERSE 2: 

Walking through unfamiliar streets 
and I'm shaking unfamiliar hands 
and I'm hearing unfamiliar laughs 
and lovely language I don't understand 
It's late October in Copenhagen 
The skies are grey, the snow is falling 
I see my breath outside, I'm freezing 
I'm motionless, in disbelief, that... 

REPEAT CHORUS 

AD LIB (Dm  C G) TO END
