[Verse 1]

Bb
And there were future reflections
F
On the face and the hands
Bb
On a green colored island
F
On a primitive man
Bb
It was the future reflecting
F
It felt familiar but new
Bb
A street was missing a building
F
The kids had something to do
[Chorus]
Gm Dm
There was a feeling the spirit was leaving
Asus4 Am
Red like a marker
G F6
So my tribe, with my knife
Cm Bb
Cut the heart from a lonely life
[Verse 2]
| F | F | F | F | x2
Bb/F
I saw patterns on floorboards
F
Deep in the dust was a leader
Bb/F
Someone was walking on floorboards
F
Turning from oak into cedar
Bb/F
He can assess the situation
F
I wrapped a string around my finger
Bb/F
Into the forest with the young ones
F
I don't expect to be a winner
[Chorus]
Gm Em7b5
But as long as you feel it
Dm
I'm a believer
Asus4 Am
My heart is phosphor
G F6
Sea rolls and death tolls
Cm Bb
Break the surface don't break my bones
Gm Em7b5
Off of the trail and
Dm
Off of your hands and
Asus4 Am
Onto a new plan
G F6
Is the cost to stay lost
Cm Bb
Forever in an empty skin
Bm7b5
Pale and thin
[Otro]
F/C Bm7b5
If it's good, or if it's fortune, I can't tell
Bbmaj7 F/A
But pieces come together for some reason just as well
F/C
Their guns couldn't see us
Bm7b5
There's a sea outside my door
Bbmaj7
And one day I'll appreciate
F/A A/C# Dm C
The rush of blood and the washed out beat of the shore
Bb F
And remember what it felt like
Dm C
To be alone
Bb F
Sitting in the sunlight
Dm C Bb F
All alone
