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