Intro: G C 

Verse 
C             Am 
How does it begin again? 
C             Am 
How does it amaze? 
D            C 
Trusted in abstraction 
           G 
And it has ruined me 

Verse 
C             Am 
Seems I am afraid of it 
C              Am 
An undesired effect 
D            C 
It resembled weakness 
               G 
Mistaken for a strength 

D          C 
It did not come 
           G 
Or else it never left 

Verse 
C               Am 
Gently turn the frame around 
C             Am 
Let the water run 
D                   C 
I keep the light on very late 
             G 
Don't bother anyone 

Verse 
C                Am 
Something passes over me 
C                 Am 
Cutting sharp and bright 
D              C 
Caught by my attention 
           G 
I lose the moment 

D           C 
None or too much 
          G 
It is the same result

Verse 
C               Am 
Fall asleep in your bed 
C               Am 
Sleep until I'm up 
D             C 
I just want a clear head 
          G 
Sun on my shoulder
