Playing To The Firmament

G  C  G   C


[Verse 1]
           G                              Em
There are kids, lots of kids, who put the law inside a circle
         C                                 G             D
As they jump, I hope that you will up and down, up and down
           G                 Em
When did you cave into this role that you were cast in
         C                                     G           D
When did dress-up turn to fashion, throw your gown up and down


[Chorus]
           G                    C
There's always the sky, let it hear what you're saying
      G               C
For all that you are saying
            Em                      C
And let it take you apart, to the elements of praying
      G                         C
Til we are only playing to the firmament
     G                          C
Til we are only playing to the firmament

           G                      Em
In the rain, in the rain, people rush around on cold streets
         C                                    G          D
Here's a shell to hear their heartbeats very loud, very loud
             G                               Em
Where's the pain, it's only rain, it's only slowing down a work day
       C                          G           D
Only singing happy birthday to a crowd, very loud


[Chorus]
           G                    C
There's always the sky, let it hear what you're saying
      G               C
For all that you are saying
            Em                      C
And let it take you apart, to the elements of praying
      G                         C
Til we are only playing to the firmament
     G                          C
Til we are only playing to the firmament


[Bridge]
               Em                         C
And when did sex get so mean, when did crime get so clean
            Em                           C            D
You know I just can't seem to find the soul in this striving
          Em                         C
Why not play to a dream, cause the world is too green
    Am            D
For all this bad driving


[Verse 3]
           G               Em
What's the rush, dip your brush into this twilight
           C                                    G                D
There are leaves upon the skylight, trace your hand, trace your hand
    G                            Em
Mr. Emd, he shot ahead, he shot ahead inside a circle
       C                                 G                  D
On a bad day, who would you kill, take a stand, trace your hand


[Chorus]
           G                    C
There's always the sky, let it hear what you're saying
      G               C
For all that you are saying
            Em                      C
And let it take you apart, to the elements of praying
      G                         C
Til we are only playing to the firmament
     G                          C
Til we are only playing to the firmament
