[Verse 1]
Eb F Bb
Well, I guess the darkest nights will hide their stars
Eb F Bb
but lately your cloudy skies are the crowded bars
Eb F
and I’ve been squinting at the distance,
Bb Gm
waiting for the light to break,
Eb F Bb
worried, dear, about how long that might take
[Verse 2]
Eb F Bb
God’s been closing windows and slamming doors
Eb F Bb
The rain keeps leaking in, what the hell was that house for?
Eb F Bb F Gm
Love came at so high a cost that you could not afford
Eb F Bb
so now you’re throwing up your hands and feet are kicking up a storm
[Pre-Chorus]
Eb Bb F
But there’s still light in your eyes
Eb Bb F
It’s small, but it still shines
[Chorus]
Bb Gm Eb Bb
There is nothing in the past that you belong to
Gm Eb Bb
and even if the memories come and find you
Gm Eb Cm F
Well, it is not their task to try and rescue what’s left,
Bb
what’s left of your joy
[Instrumental]
Gm Eb Bb Gm
[Verse 3]
Eb F Bb
What if the valley’s too wide to hold your dreams?
Eb F Bb
What if your heart has grown too dull to gleam?
Eb F Bb F Gm
What if it’s ancestral; it’s running through your jeans?
Eb F Bb
It’s all too much and now you’re bursting at the seams
[Pre-Chorus]
Eb Bb F
But there’s still light in your eyes
Eb Bb F
It’s faint, but it still shines
[Chorus]
Bb Gm Eb Bb
There is nothing in the past that you belong to
Gm Eb Bb
and even if the memories come and find you

Well, it is not their task to try and rescue what’s left,
Bb
what’s left of your joy
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
Cm F Bb F Gm F
Your sorrow does not flatter you even if the tears are true
Eb F Bb
I’ve seen you sing your way through deeper blues
Cm F Bb Gm F
Sacred songs and holy water, they don’t last long enough to bother
Eb Ebm
So all the things you miss just wash from the surface
[Instrumental]
Bb Gm Eb Bb Gm Eb Cm F
[Chorus]
Bb Gm Eb Bb
There is nothing in the past that you belong to
Gm Eb Bb
and even if the memories come and find you
Gm Eb Cm F
Well, it is not their task to try and rescue what’s left,
Bb Gm Eb Bb
what’s left of your joy
Gm Eb Bb
What is left of your joy?
