| Intro: |
| E | A | B | A |
| Verse 1: |
| E | |
| I want something |
| D | C#m | |
| That's purer than the | water |
| E | |
| Like we were |
| E | |
| It's not there now |
| D | C#m | |
| In eloquence and | anger |
| E | |
| Are all we have |
| E | |
| Like Saturn's rings |
| D | C#m | |
| An icy loop | around me |
| E | |
| Too hard to hold |
| E | |
| Lash out first |
| D | C#m | |
| At all the things we | don't like |
| E | |
| Or understand |
| Chorus: |
| C#m | |
| And it's beginning to | get to me |
| B | |
| That I know more of the | stars and sea |
| A | |
| Than I do of what's | in your head |
| E | |
| Barely touching in | our cold bed |
| C#m | |
| Are you beginning to | get get my point |
| B | |
| They're always fighting with | aching joints |
| A | |
| It's doing nothing but | tire us out |
| E | |
| No one knows what this | fight's about |
| Verse 2: |
| E | |
| The answer phone |
| D | C#m | |
| The lonely sound of | your voice |
| E | |
| Frozen in time |
| E | |
| I only need |
| D | C#m | |
| The compass that you | gave me |
| E | |
| To guide me on |
| C#m | |
| And it's beginning to | get to me |
| B | |
| That I know more of the | stars and sea |
| A | |
| Than I do of what's | in your head |
| E | |
| Barely touching in | our cold bed |
| C#m | |
| Are you beginning to | get my point |
| B | |
| They're always fighting with | aching joints |
| A | |
| It's doing nothing but | tire us out |
| E | |
| No one knows what this | fight's about |
| C#m | |
| It's so thrilling but | also wrong |
| B | |
| Don't have to prove that you | are so strong |
| A | |
| Cos I can carry you | on my back |
| E | |
| After our ene | mies attack |
| C#m | |
| I tried to tell you | before I left |
| B | |
| But I was screaming | under my breath |
| A | |
| You are the only thing that | makes sense |
| E | |
| Just ignore all this | present tense |
| E | A | B | A |
| E | A | |
| We need to feel breath | less with love |
| B | A | |
| And | not collapse under its | weight |
| E | A | |
| I'm | gasping for the | air to fill |
| B | A | |
| My | lungs with everything I've | lost |
| E | A | |
| We | need to feel breath | less with love |
| B | A | |
| And | not collapse under its w | eight |
| E | A | |
| I'm | gasping for the | air to fill |
| B | A | |
| My l | ungs with everything I've | lost |
