[Intro]
D G Em C D
D G Em7 C D
[Verse]
D G Em C D
Cold through broken baseboards, I despise this town
D Am C C G D
Snow on the sunroof, two stories down
D G D Em
Hold hands, wish the snow away.
D Am C C G D
Rise in the darkness of the gathering day
[Chorus]
Bm F# D G
Sing, sing for ourselves alone
Bm F# D G
Speak into the microphone.
[Verse]
D G Em C D
Cedar smudge our headbands and take to the skies
D Am C C G D
Soar ever upwards on air gone black with flies
D G D Em
Shroud ourselves in the cosmos, let the music play
D Am C C G D
Bright star of the morning, shine on his rising way
[Chorus]
Bm F# D G
Sing in the night in the nameless dark
Bm F# D G
Father long gone but we bear his mark
F#m C G D
Learn some secrets, never tell
F#m Em C G D
Stay sick, don't get well
[Verse]
D G Em C D
Clutch those broken headboards, ride the highest wave
D Am C C G D
Dusky diamonds shining in the far depths of the cave
D G D Em
Try to explain ourselves, babble on and on
D Am C C G D
By the time you receive this, we'll be gone
[Chorus]
Bm F# D G
Sing, sing high, while the fire climbs
Bm F# D G
Sing one for the old times
[Outro]
