C F C Am G
the night fell with bicycle bells, the dark had wooden teeth
F C Am G
oh we broke on up to hill country, the air was thin and sweet
F Riff 1
lord, the air was thin and sweet
C F C Am G
she held onto my coat that night, like a kid lost in her sleeves
F C
oh we warmed the ground, we hushed our sound
Am G
we slept on walking feet
F Riff 1
lord, we slept on walking feet
F C
oh Darlin, pardon me
Am G
can you help me remember
F C
when we were all flying free
Am G
we were dust from our bodies
F C Am G
and we were flicker and flame, yeah we burned till the morning
F Riff 1
Darlin, pardon me
C F C
off in the night, you can hear 'em bright,
Am C
the Sirens of the Sea
Am G F C
oh and city birds and alley girls, they all just sing for free
F Riff 1
oh they all just sing for free
F C
oh Darlin, pardon me
Am G
but do I look familiar
F C
when we were just larkspur and leaves
Am G
we were strung through the tether
F C
and we were all silver and stone
Am G
we were the lust of the miners
F Riff 1
Darlin, pardon me
Am E F G
Am E F G
C F C Am C
that sky glowed all calico like phosphor in the sea
Am G
to the ground we fall, she owns us all
F C
kings and boys and beast
F Riff 1
kings and boys and beast
F C
oh Darlin, pardon me
Am G
but do I look familiar
F C
when we were just flying free
Am G
and we burned from a freight train
F C Am G
and we were some flicker of truth in the smile of a salesman
F Am C G
and we were all buried jewels 'neath the grass in the suburbs
F C Am G
and we were all living proof
F Riff 1
oh Darlin, pardon me
