Weightless in the Dark
The Details
G Em
Well it felt a New Year long, before you walked in to the door
C D G
Before the elevator broke , on the 97th floor
Em
Well you never knew your dad, and your family’s always been a chore
C D G
You said religion gave you lots, but Laurel Canyon gave you more
Em G
You had tears in your eyes, we were waiting in the dark
Em Bm D G
You had tears in your eyes, ohhhh the arrow on the mark
G Em
And now your runnin’ down the hall, pushing cameras to the side
C D G
And how its spoken with the sounds, that are coming from your eyes
Well, we have methods , we have ways
Em C D
And we have aching broken sores, but you said I’m like a wave
G
And you’re the rocky shore
Em G
It took a year to decide, we were banging on the door
G Em Bm D G
It took a year to decide, ohhh that you were mean’t for something more
(Quietly)
G Em
Well, it started with a noise, that made us both close our eyes
C D G
And as the elevator fell, I coulda sworn I saw you smile
Em G
But you had tears in your eyes, we were weightless in the dark
Em Bm D G
You had tears in your eyes, ohhh the arrow on the mark
Em G
You had tears in your eyes
Em G
You had tears in your eyes
Em G
You had tears in your eyes
C D G
But I’m glad I got to know you, right before we die
