[Intro]
Gm Dm Fm Cm (2x)
[Verse]
Gm Dm Fm Cm Gm Dm Fm Cm
Heaven hid her face as we fell down
Gm Dm Fm Cm Gm Dm Fm Cm
Age old habits echoed in the ground
Gm Dm Fm Cm Gm Dm Fm Cm
One old sing and one would hold me down
Gm Dm Fm Cm Gm Dm Fm Cm
They might listen if I make no sound
[Chorus]
Note: play this one octave below the previous chords.
Gm Dm Fm
Oh I know this
Cm Gm Dm
From my high school heart
Fm Cm Gm
That nothing is over
Dm Fm Cm
From a touch it will begin
Gm Dm Fm Cm
Wide in the sky
[Verse]
Gm Dm Fm Cm Gm Dm Fm Cm
In my house the silence rang so loud
Gm Dm Fm Cm Gm Dm Fm Cm
Under doorways, through the hallway down
Gm Dm Fm Cm Gm Dm Fm Cm
Waiting for the secret to grow out
Gm Dm Fm Cm Gm Dm Fm Cm
Oh what we do when no one is around
[Break]

[Bridge]
Gm F F9 Cm
In the dark I hear you sing
Gm F F9 Cm
Fingers move and chords they ring
Gm F F9 Cm
Be the witness of my shame
Gm F F9 Cm
Swaying in the summer rain
Gm F F9 Cm
Feathers falling from your wing
Gm F F9 Cm
In the dark I hear you sing
