Intro: Dm Dbm (X3) Dm This soul's a stowaway At the heels of a gaze Gm Their eyes betrayed in the arcade Misdirection pervades Dm And my image fades of you (Where are you) Dm Could we return to the hymn of the lake? Grave refrains of impossible love? Gm Not believing what they'd say Dm Haunting heralds whose words were lost on you Dm (Where are you?) C I'd bare you my heart Gm If I knew that it still was there Bb I'm too nervous to look Dm F Too afraid to close the book C Gm So take all the wind from my lungs if you're out of air Bb Just deliver me truth Db Just deliver me you Interlude: Dm Dbm Dm How'd we lose our place? Who decided our fate Gm Decay until we we're erased? Idly wasting away Dm Well the nightmares ending soon (Where are you?) C I'd bare you my heart Gm If I knew that it still was there Bb I'm too nervous to look Dm F Too afraid to close the book C Gm So take all the wind from my lungs if you're out of air Bb Just deliver me truth Db I'll deliver me you Interlude: F Dm Am (Who are you waiting for?) F Dm Am Bb If the younger me just could have seen Dm The trouble I'd create Db F Am He'd never have agreed to carry on Bb When sins of sons to fathers come Dm Too heavy is the weight Db F The spirit split in two Interlude: F Cm Gm (X2) F Dear apparition In this fleeting flash Cm Must I burn the earth Before you turn to ash? Gm Would such extremes repair our broken past? Bb The silver lining seldom lies Dm In sight too plain to see Db But trust our story's end can bring redemption for the pain endured
