N.C.
Am I cold? I cannot tell
N.C.
Have I fallen or am 

I falling down the stairwell?

N.C.
(Philadelphia!)
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

FM7     Dm7             Am
Oh, the cadence of the glow
            F#m   
Concussive flashes 
         D
Of distant memories

F                
Good God, I feel 

 Am
Your hands on me 
 
 
[Chorus]

F                 G
In the dying of the light
           A      
My aggressor runs 

   Gsus2     F#m7  F  E
Under the lamps

Am      FM7    
Morning light, 

        F          G
They'll get to see 

    Am        Asus2  F#dim F E Am
The crime committed on me
N.C.         F
(Philadelphia!)
 
 
[Verse]

FM7     Dm7             Am
Sonny Green is feeling slow
                 
Pepped up with a 
       G
Bag so righteous 

He sings all of Rubber Soul

N.C.          F
(Philadelphia!)
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

FM7     Dm7             Am
Oh, the cadence of the glow
            F#m    
Concussive flashes 
  D
Of distant memories 

F               
Good God, I feel 
  Am
Your hands on me

 
[Chorus]
 
F                 G
In the dying of the light

           A     
My aggressor runs 

   Gsus2     F#m7  F  E
Under the lamps

Am      FM7   
Morning light, 
        F          G
They'll get to see

    Am        Asus2  F#dim F E Am
The crime committed on me
N.C.         F

[Bridge]

N.C.  D                 
Silk, dampened, unknown, 
     G
Over final thoughts 

                        F
Where will I be in two years?
E        D                    
Euphoria breaks over the bow, 
 G
Washing up the macabre

                 C
Out to sea to my mother's arms
 
 
[Outro]

F              
And I'm losing
     G
 My ability to fathom

              C
Awake and not awake
F             
And I'm losing 
    G
My ability to fathom

              C
Awake and not awake
F              
And I'm losing 
    G
My ability to fathom

F         E              F
Awake  -  and not awake
