(Am - Am7 Fade-in)
Am E7sus4 E7
The only time I ever heard the voice of God
F C E7sus4 E7
Was in the silence of the night in the arms of the one I love
Dm G C C9/B Am
Staring at the ceiling up above
G E7sus4 E Am
Like it contained the secrets of the stars
Am E7sus4 E7
Any time I ever woke up in a dream
F C E7sus4 E7
I saw my shadow there staring back at me
Dm G C C9/B Am
Moving through the walls and wondering
G E7sus4 E Am
As all the world rose up inside of me
F E7sus4 E7
And I long to hear the melody
Am Gadd4 F Em Dm
That one time played inside my mind
Dm E7sus4 E7
And to love another helplessly
Am Gadd4 F Em F Em E7sus4 E7
So breathing feels like putting out a fire
Am E7sus4 E7
Any time my life flashes in front of me
F C E7sus4 E7
I see a child there as if on a screen
Dm G C C9/B Am
Standing in the shadows flickering
G E7sus4 E Am
For a moment I know what it means
**Joey's chords during Kenneth's solo
C - Em - Am
Am E7sus4 E7
All this time I lived inside a memory
F C E7sus4 E7
Daylight creeping in through a crack in the weathered seams
Dm G C C9/B Am
Severing the ties and trembling
G E7sus4 E Am
Losing all the voices in the wind
F E7sus4 E7
And I long to hear the melody
Am Gadd4 F Em Dm
That one time played inside my mind
Dm E7sus4 E7
And to love another helplessly
Am Gadd4 F Em F Em E7sus4 E7
So breathing feels like putting out a fire
