[Verse]
E B
The countless eyes dotted in the night sky
E B
I speak the language, or several hundred words.
E B
A cloudless day, and a thunderous night.
E B
Among companions, I'll carry my name.
[Chorus]
F#
But the life we lead came gradually.
B
Who keeps the time?
F#
A bitter lime, will do us fine
B
To kill the taste.
[Verse]
E B
We´ll turn deaf ears on all that we don’t wanna hear
E B
But a cause for travel has come again.
E B
At this early hour, I'll tell your wife a story
E B
She looks outside and doubles over laughing.
[Chorus]
F#
Of the souls you loved, and a place you lived
B
Those country houses.
F#
And a change of heart tore us apart
B
Oh, what a ride.
B F# B F#
B
Every chance you have
B
All the love and life
B
All the joy and grace
F#
Don't be absurd, don't you think it out
F#
You know what thinking does
B
To love's shine, and love's light.
B
Now it's your every word
B
Oh I'm hanging on
F#
It feels right these days
F#
I saw strange things
F#
The lines of old faces
B
Up on the stormy sky, tonight.
E B E B
[Verse]
E B
Now all the younger kids have gone away to sleep
E B
In the days to come, I’ll do the same.
E B
At this early hour, I'll tell your wife a story
E B
She looks outside and doubles over laughing.
[Chorus]
F#
The life we lead came gradually
B
Who keeps the time?
F#
Bitter lime, do us fine
B
To kill the taste.
