Verse (Fmaj7, Cmaj7)
Fmaj7
All that I could tell you
Cmaj7
If the words and courage came
Fmaj7
They hide like city animals
Cmaj7
Duck and rush out in the shade
Fmaj7
And they're not short of shadows in the city
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Or the black holes in my brain
Chorus:
Fmaj7 G
Won't you come out
Won't you come out
Won't you come
Fmaj7
I won't let you down
Won't let you down
Won't let you down
G
I will pull you through
Fmaj7
I will pull you through the air
Fmaj7
Every time I see you
Cmaj7
Every time I say goodnight
Fmaj7
Every thought I thought is gone
Cmaj7
Rats running from the kitchen light
Fmaj7
And then I hear them talking in the stairwell
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Where do you go when I need you most?
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Am Fmaj7
I will hang this banner up
Em G
Up above you
Em G Am
With all the words I lost
Am Fmaj7
A hundred pigeons to pull it taught
Em G
All around you
Em G Am
The wicked world can watch
Am Fmaj7
See their faces as they read it
Em G
Watch them witness
Em G Am
Watch them bound to me
Am Fmaj7
All the animals come up
Em G
Up behind you
Em G Fmaj7
Watch the rush hour start
Cmaj7
(Rush hour start)
Fmaj7
This fucking fear has ruined me
Cmaj7
Tied my tongue and tripped my feet
Fmaj7
And I swear to you there’s more beneath
Cmaj7
This scared stone muttering
Fmaj7
And there’s no short of shadows in the city
Cmaj7
Come out tonight till the sun rises
Come out tonight till the sun rises
Fmaj7
Come out tonight till the sun rises
Come out tonight till the sun
Repeat Chorus
