Dust To Dust
Standard Tuning
Capo 1st Fret
F
It's not your eyes
G C
It's not what you say
Am
It's not your laughter that gives you away
E
You're just lonely
G
You've been lonely, too long
C - G - C
All your actin'
Your thin disguise
All your perfectly delivered lies
They don't fool me
You've been lonely, too long
Chorus:
E Am
Let me in the wall, you've built around
G Am
And we can light a match and burn it down
E Am
Let me hold your hand and dance 'round and 'round the flame
G
In front of us
Dust to ...
You've held your head up
You've fought the fight
You bear the scars
You've done your time
Listen to me-
You've been lonely, too long
Chorus:
Let me in the wall, you've built around
And we can light a match and burn them down
And let me hold your hand and dance 'round and 'round the flames
In front of us
Dust to Dust...
You're like a mirror, reflecting me
Takes one to know one, so take it from me
You've been lonely
You've been lonely, too long
We've been lonely
We've been lonely, too long
