Ellipsis

[Intro] D  G  D  A
        D  G  D  A

[Primera Parte]

D                    G         D               A
Swayin’ lights on a hillside, almost forgot my name
D                         G            D          A
Carside houses in the desert tide, they all look the same
Bm                             A
And for a fleeting moment, there was terror in your eyes
Bm                     G
A haunting revelation or a clever disguise

[Estribillo]

D                      A
Just give me that ellipsis
                                       G
There was never any harm from a couple of dots
                      A
The time forgot, to fill up the empty pages

[Segunda Parte]

D                   G                      D
We built a fire in the kitty-litter mill,
                   A
the old brick barely took the heat
D                   G
Took a lot just to get our fill,
D                    F#m
pile of hot coals on cold concrete
B7      Bm                A
At a glance I noticed, there were tears in your eyes
B7                   G
A total realization, we’d have to say goodbye

[Estribillo]

D                      A
Just give me that ellipsis
                                       G
There was never any harm from a couple of dots
                      A
The time forgot, to fill up the empty pages
D                         A
Please grant me that illusion
                                  G
Of a different time, where the stories there, written with care
     A
And nothing ever changes

( D  G  D  A )
( D  G  D  A )

D                  G                D            A
Could you really see yourself completely fadin’ away
D                    G             D          A
Or was it more like the reflection in a window pane?
B7      Bm           A
Not quite so vivid, a couple shadows overlapped
Bm                           G               A
And everything behind you, looks pale and trapped

[Puente]

Bm                           F#m
I’ve been lookin’ ‘round the streets tonight
A                E
With a melody so poor
Bm                        F#m
And a collection of some words that rhyme
A                 E      G  A  D
Help the drama to unfold

[Estribillo]

D                      A
Just give me that ellipsis
                                       G
There was never any harm from a couple of dots
                      A
The time forgot, to fill up the empty pages
D                         A
Please grant me that illusion
                                  G
Of a different time, where the stories there, written with care
     A
And nothing ever changes

[Estribillo]

D                      A
Just give me that ellipsis
                                       G
There was never any harm from a couple of dots
                      A
The time forgot, to fill up the empty pages
D                         A
Please grant me that illusion
                                 G
Of a different time, where the stories there, written with care
     A
And nothing ever changes

[Final] D  A  G  A  Bm
