verse 1
G Bm D C Em Bm
You lived in a fog, in the summer the dogs barked every night
G Bm D C Em Bm
With the blackened lung, a plateful of crums, and a raft of fans on high
Em Bm C Am G Bm D C Em
While you swung around like you owned the place
Bm G Bm D C Em Bm
Wiped that look right off my face!
verse 2
G Bm D C Em Bm
Stuck in the frozen, fuck like it's going out of style
G Bm D C Em Bm
Down on the shore with his shirt and his chords waiting slack and single file
Em Bm C Am Am Am
With your well so dry and your face so red
D C Bm C
There's a restless energy, it lurks behind your eyes
D C Bm C
Dormant like a genie, he'll express himself in time
Bm C
Still, a part of me screams
Dm Eb
But it's sewn up inside
Em Bm C G
And oh-my-god
Em Bm C G D Am Am Am
Now look what you've done
G Bm D C Em Bm (x2)
Em Bm C Am
verse 3
G C D
Honey it's true, you've been sleepwalking through the last few months
G F#m C D
Face to the floor, down on all 4s, looking for what i had once
Em Bm C Am Am Am
And it hurts sometimes, but I'm used to it
D C Bm C
Maybe he'll go to the ring and hold your hand over the flame
D C Bm C
We'll lose all sense of time and we'll forget each other's names
Bm C Dm Eb
We'll see what there is to see and come back the way we came
Em Bm C G
And the slow, sad waterfall
Em Bm C G D
Makes your eyes look dry
Bridge
C
Why-y-y-y,
Em D
Why do you hold that heart like something wild?
C
Why-hy-hy-hy?
Em Am
Why do you keep that heart locked up so tight?
