[Intro] (x2)
C E Dm F
[Verse 1]
C E
When it rains, yeah it rains
Dm F
we can be so unforgiving, it leaves us unforgiven
C E
we're the same, we never change
Dm F Bb
it's the reason we're together, just waiting for the weather to pass
[Chorus]
F C Bb
I've been rolling my days away
F C Bb
can't turn out the light that keeps me awake
G F
I've been trying to sleep for a while
Dm Am
there'll be nothing left to talk about
Bb F
and no one left to hear.
(F)
In a while,
Dm Am
We'll pour water on these ashes and
Bb F
the walls will disappear
C A
for a while
Dm C G Bb F
We've been caught in the cold light of day
[Verse 2]
C E
Lost our love, you put it down
Dm F
somewhere for safekeeping, so safe you don't remember
C E
but it's okay, we'll make some more
Dm F Bb
it's you that i'll be needing, not these books that we've been reading too long
[Chorus]
F C Bb
I've been rolling my days away
F C Bb
can't turn out the light that keeps me awake
G F
I've been trying to sleep for a while
Dm Am
there'll be nothing left to talk about
Bb F
and no one left to hear.
(F)
In a while,
Dm Am
We'll pour water on these ashes and
Bb F
the walls will disappear
C A
for a while
Dm C G Bb F
We've been caught in the cold light of day

I've been trying to sleep, I've been trying to sleep

for a while

there'll be nothing left to talk about

In a while,
Dm Am
We'll pour water on these ashes and

the walls will disappear

We've been caught in the cold light of day
