[Intro]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7 [Verse]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 I tried to tell you,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
I didn’t know how to stay
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 You believe she can see through,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
cutting at the silent clay
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 A re-lief, beckon deep blue,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
fettered in the magnet sun
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Eat the gun as it feeds you,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
spitting up the oxy-gen Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7 Once a-gain Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7 Once a-gain Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Once a-gain, empty horses,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
gallop through the violet door
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Follow red, crooked courses,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
shadows on the moonlit floor
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Oh my stars, winged creatures,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
gathering in silken height
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7 Like the last human teachers Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Once a-gain, we must bleed new,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
even as the hours shake
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Crystal blood like a dream true,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
a ripple in the wound and wake
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 You be-lieve, I be-lieve too,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
that you are the river of light
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Who I love that I cling to,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
in the belly of the empty night [Chorus]
C Am From the thirty first floor,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
of the simulation swarm
C Am With the drone of fluor-escence,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
flicker, fever, fill the form Am Gmaj7 With a warm gush how I wanna touch,
C Fmaj7
like we never could be-fore
C Am I’d fly to you to-morrow,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
I’m not fighting in this war
C Am I wanna drop my arms and take
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
your arms and walk you to the shore [Verse]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7 I re-member, building an energy shield
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 In your room, like a temple,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
swallows in the windless field
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Very thin, with your mother,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
tall as a pale green tree
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Very wild, bright as winter,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
rising with a prism key
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 And a child to de-liver,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
taken with the blood and vine Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7 It's the first little angel [Solo]

Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Little Andy,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
soft in your newborn skin
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Only one, little Andy,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
will you return a-gain
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 I be-lieve we can re-new,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
And you could be my brother
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Once a-gain, fall a-sleep with,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
our backs against each other
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 You be-lieve, I be-lieve too,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
that you are the river of light
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Who I love that I sing to,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
in the belly of the empty night [Chorus]
C Am From the thirty first floor,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
of the simulation swarm
C Am With the drone of fluor-escence,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
flicker, fever, fill the form
Am Gmaj7 With a warm gush how I wanna touch,
C Fmaj7
like we never could be-fore
C Am I’d fly to you to-morrow,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
I’m not fighting in this war
C Am I wanna drop my arms and take your arms
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
And walk you to the shore C Am I’d fly to you to-morrow,
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
I’m not fighting in this war
C Am Gmaj7 Fmaj7 I wanna drop my arms and take your arms [Outro]
