Intro: E  G  A  D (2x) 


E               G D            A             G 
Find a thread to pull and we can watch it unravel 
        E                 G D           A            G 
Because we've been living with a ghost of summer from two years ago 


          D               A 
A hint of light in the dark 
          E                          F 
But only enough to keep from giving up 
              C                G 
If I could go back to the start 
             D                         A 
To break the pattern forming between us 


    E               G D
A needle dragging thread 
            A                         G 
To form the chapters only we could know 
    E            G D
But they will overlap 
                A                     G 
And cast a shadow on what little's left 


          D               A 
A hint of light in the dark 
          E                          F 
But only enough to keep from giving up 
              C                G 
If I could go back to the start 
             D                         A 
To break the pattern forming between us 



Instrumental: D A E 


E               G D            A             G 
Find a thread to pull and we can watch it unravel   
       E               D 
But this is just the start 
         A             G 
We'll find out who we are 


          D               A 
A hint of light in the dark 
          E                          F 
But only enough to keep from giving up 
              C                G 
If I could go back to the start 
             D                         A 
To break the pattern forming between us
