VERSE - Only bass plays in the 
verse, until...

I breathe out smoke against the 
window,
                             G5
Trace the letters in your name.
                         F5
Our letters sound the same;
                        G5         
Full of all our changing that isn't
            F5
 change at all.

All straight lines circle sometime.

Continues after the ad
POST-VERSE (Part 1) - Repeat the 
intro.

VERSE - Once again, only bass plays 
until...

Somewhere sympathy is more than just
 a way of leaving.

Somewhere someone says 'I'm sorry.'
                            G5
Someone's making plans to stay."
                  F5
So tell me it's okay.
                   G5              
Tell me anything, or show me 
     F5
there's a pull,
                         G5
Unassailable, that will lead you 
there,
                              F5
From the dark, alone, to benevolence
 that you've never known,
          C5               B5     
Or you knew when you were four and
           A5
 can't remember.
          G5
Where a small knife tears out those 
sloppy seams,
           F5
And the silence knows what you 
silence means,
            C5           B5       
And your metaphors, as mixed as 
            A5
you can make them,

Are linked, like days, together.

POST-VERSE (Part 1)

POST-VERSE (Part 2) - Play this 
after Part 1.

(Play the whole lick twice)

Guitar 2

C5 A5 (Play each chord 16 times, 
play the whole process twice)

VERSE

G5                        F5
I still hear trains at night, when 
the wind is right
G5                 F5
I remember everything, lick
And thread this string that will 
   G5
never mend you
                        F5
Or tailor more than a memory of a 
kitchen floor,
         C5            B5   
Or the fire-door that we kept 
            A5
propping open.
       G5
And I love this place; the enormous 
sky,
         F5
And the faces, hands that I'm 
haunted by,
    C5   B5                
So why can't I forgive these 
    A5
buildings,
