 her holding up horizons with her 
hands.

                      Bm

        E                          
So The backlanes tie the city down;

string. Winter dies the same way 
every spring.

grey, and the way we watched her 
watch us walks away,


Chorus:

E A

          C#/A Bm

walls.

rooms that too much has happened
