The Only Thing

G   D  Em  D  A7


[Verse]

G             D           Em     
The only thing that keeps me from
 D              A7
 driving this car
G             D           Em
Half-light, jack knife into the 
      D              A7
canyon at night
G             D           Em     
Signs and wonders: Perseus 
 D              A7
aligned with the skull
G         D        Em      D   
Slain Medusa, Pegasus alight 
        A7
from us all


[Chorus]

Bm                   F#m         
Do I care if I survive this? Bury
   G                       A7
 the dead where they’re found
Bm                   F#m     
In a veil of great surprises; I 
       G                       A7
wonder did you love me at all?


[Verse]

G           D           Em      
The only thing that keeps me 
D             A7
from cutting my arm
G           D           Em      
Cross hatch, warm bath, Holiday 
D           A7
Inn after dark
G           D         Em      D
Signs and wonders: water stain 
             A7
writing the wall
G            D          Em      
Daniel’s message: blood of the 
D              A7
moon on us all

[Chorus]

Bm                   F#m         
Do I care if I despise this? 
   G                       A7
Nothing else matters, I know
Bm                   F#m         
In a veil of great disguises, how
   G                       A7
 do I live with your ghost?


[Bridge]

G             D            A7
Should I tear my eyes out now?
D          Em         D         
Everything I see returns to you 
    A7
somehow
G             D            A7
Should I tear my heart out now?
D          Em         D         
Everything I feel returns to you
    A7         G
 somehow
                               A7
I want to save you from your sorrow


[Break]

Bm   F#m     Em    A7


[Verse]

G        D        Em      D    
The only reason why I continue 
       A7
at all
G        D        Em      D    
Faith in reason, I wasted my 
       A7
life playing dumb
G        D        Em      D    
Signs and wonders: sea lion 
       A7
caves in the dark
G        D        Em      D    
Blind faith, God’s grace, 
       A7
nothing else left to impart


[Chorus]

Bm                   F#m         
Do I care if I survive this, bury
   G                       A7
 the dead where they’re found
Bm                   F#m         
In a veil of great surprises, 
   G                       A7
hold to my head till I drown

Bm           F#m           
Should I tear my eyes out now, 
G                       A7
before I see too much?
Bm           F#m           G    
Should I tear my arms out now, I
                   A7
 wanna feel your touch


[Bridge]

G             D            A7
Should I tear my eyes out now?
D          Em         D         
Everything I see returns to you 
    A7
somehow
G             D            A7
Should I tear my heart out now?
D          Em         D         
Everything I feel returns to you
    A7         G
 somehow
