Walls

C#m                               
We write a thousand pages, they're
                   Abm
 torn and on the floor.
                        E          
Headlights hammer the windows, 
                        C#m
we're locked behind these doors.
And we are never leaving, this place
            Abm
 is part of us.
                       E           
And all these scenes repeating are 
                   C#m
cold to the touch.


C#m
My hands seem to deceive me
When I'm nervous or when I'm 
  Abm
healthy.
                     E
The scenery's all drawn.


C#m
They hang here from the walls dear,
                             Abm
Painting pictures, bleeding colors,
             E           B Abm
Blanket the windows.


C#m                        
Sometimes it gets so hard to 
   B         Abm
breathe.
C#m   F#                        E
Your eyes can see right through me.

Abm                            
These fights with your arms left 
     F#
beside.
It's one thing and one more says 
    E
goodnight.
                               F#
You've got the map come get to me.
These knuckles break before they 
  Abm
bleed.


Tear out these veins that own my 
 F#
heart.
This skin that wears your lasting 
 E
marks.
I've built these walls come get to
C#m
 me, come get to me.


C#m
Is this your lesson, a slight 
discretion,
The lines that keep you, the lines 
     Abm
that sweep you.
                         E
Lock the doors from the inside.


C#m
Your face is so contagious, it wears
 announcements,
               Abm
It leaves me breathless, I won't 
forget this,
          E            B  Abm
I won't forget.


C#m                        
Sometimes it gets so hard to 
   B         Abm
breathe.
C#m   F#                        E
Your eyes can see right through me.

C#m
Let the walls have their say. [x6]
Have their say.




C#m                    E
There's no conversation, words 
without remorse.
C#m                E
And this television drowns the only 
source.
C#m                      E
Wake from these dreams of you in my 
arms.
C#m               E              
Go to the staircase where you 
       C#m    E    C#m  E
hold my heart.
