[Intro]

E F#m C#m

E F#m C#m B
 
[Verse]

       E
It was seven forty seven

        F#m
We were on our way to heaven

     C#m
In a race car to the stars

       E               
With a city of blazing 

F#m      C#m      B
lights embracing us

   E
We never thought to worry,

 'Cause we

F#m
Only thought of glory

       C#m
And we trusted our lucky stars

      E
So we never thought mere

F#m           C#m    B
Seconds would betray us
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

A
 Thought we saw true

F#m
 In the bright youth

C#m                             
 Ghost of light come 

            E
shining through

A               F#m                 
 In the dawn blue, in 

              C#m E
A breath they flew
 
 
[Chorus]

F#m             A        
 Silent now the sounds of 

C#m E
Yesterday

F#m              A             
 I’m treading on sacred

        C#m
 Ground again

              E       F#m
Like a single errant ray

               A              
Showing us the wounds we both

 C#m
 Sustained
               B
And our sacred pain

F#m                     A             
 Till’ silent fall the sounds

          E
 Of yesterday
 
 
[Verse]

E             F#m                   
Nothing I do, nothing I say 

          C#m
will ever turn the rising tide

       E             F#m
In the vein of fever dreams

            C#m  B
It seems to ride us

    E                            
We never said we’re sorry and

     F#m
 the pattern wrote the story

         C#m
One more death by friendly fire

       E               F#m       
All on pain of missing out 

        C#m    B
On that final rush
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

A                 F#m            
 Did we run through before  
 
      C#m                        
We knew what it was we

           B
 Left behind?

A                  F#m                 
 Hunting ghostlights all 

                 C#m   E
The white nights through
 
 
[Chorus]

F#m             A         C#m     E
 Silent now the sounds of yesterday

F#m              A             C#m
 I’m treading on sacred ground again

              E       F#m
Like a single errant ray

               A              C#m
Showing us the wounds we both sustained

               B
And our sacred pain

F#m                     A              
 Till’ silent fall the sounds

         E
Of yesterday
 
[Instrumental]

A F#m
 
[Interlude]

C#m          E     A F#m
 Hear them softly sigh

C#m              E   A F#m
 The sounds of yesterday

C#m        E       A F#m C#m E
 Let them heal our wounds

F#m            A   
 If I close my eyes,

             E
 I can see you

                 B   
Oh I can see you close 

          F#m
Enough to touch

        A                E            
I hardly dare to dream you, oh,

         B
 lest it be too much

F#m              A     
 What’s the moral of the 
    E
Story when I

     B             F#m        E
Only see us fighting, elegy to
               A
To the starry-eyed

E F#m C#m
Ooh
 
[Solo]

E F#m C#m B B
 
[Chorus]

F#m             A         C#m     E
 Silent now the sounds of yesterday

F#m              A             C#m
 I’m treading on sacred ground again

              E       F#m
Like a single errant ray

               A    
Showing us the wounds
         C#m
 We both sustained

               B
And our sacred pain
F#m                     A             
 Till’ silent fall the sounds
          E
 of yesterday
