Intro: Bm E Em Bm F#m G A D F#m Bm
Bm E
Chains stredge the great lake around you
Em Bm F#m G
Pull you along by the knots in your hair
A D F#m Bm
It's just like you'd never been there.
Bm E
Cold tooth and ice scattered islands,
Em Bm F#m G
Faithfully facing the warmth of the sun.
A D F#m Bm
All to the quickening dawn.
Em F#m G A
Fever on the thorough-way brow
Bm C G A
The sober scent of paper.
Em F#m G A
Teething cries in what the rain hides
Bm C Bb A
Where not enough to save you.
Em F#m G A
oh oh oh oh oh oh (x2)
Bm E Em Bm F#m G A D F#m Bm
(Instrumental with flute)
Bm E
Faith is a race from the silence
Em Bm F#m G
Widens and swallows you head first and whole
A D F#m Bm
Fight through the whitening bones
Bm E
Secede while you can while you're able
Em Bm F#m G
Sorrow may tap at the root of your song
A D F#m Bm
Light sparks the opening bomb
Em F#m G A
Fever on the thorough-way brow ... ooh oooh(x2)
Bm
Every ache is dissolved in the brine
Bm E
And the waves from the bay and then rise
Em Bm F#m G
But the shark ridden garden will run dry again.
Em F#m G A
oh oh oh oh oh oh (x3)
Bm
