[VERSE 1]

G
The cathedral in Cologne looks like 
a spaceship
                      D          
like the hand of God falling from 
      G
the sky
    C                              
A thousand stone-carved saints hang
      G
 like icicles
    A                      D
but icicles don't take a thousand 
years to die

[VERSE 2]

G
And everyone who's ever worked on 
this cathedral
                 D             G
or even spent a moment walking by
Continúa después del anuncio
     C                           
Everyone of us is swept away like 
   G
breadcrumbs
      A                            
What comfort does it bring, soaring
  D             C    G
 towers left behind?

[VERSE 3]

G
There's a fiberglass castle in 
Wisconsin
                 D               
where kids race go-karts around a 
  G
moat
C                           G
once we went up there in December
      A                    D
when every waterslide and fudgeshop 
was closed

[VERSE 4]

G
Hoping to feel love under the 
icicles
                 D                G
all we did was drink in an empty bar
      C                            
but stumbling drunk we crawled back
         G
 to our motel room
       A                    D     
and I fell against you and felt 
             C   G
your beating heart

[VERSE 5]

G
Snow was slowly falling on the ice 
machine
                    D              
and the moon shone hazy through the
  G
 pines
      C                            
but there were lounge chairs thrown
          G
 into the empty pool
       A                     D
and a dog chained to a tree barking 
at the sky
