The Static Age

Dm          F                   C                Bb
We love the hand that moves the stars across the sky
Dm           F             C
Counting the hours 'til we sleep
Dm              F     C            Bb
Daylight always comes down on everyone
            Dm   C                     Dm
And then we rise back into life again


[Verse 2]
Dm               F                       C        Bb
You get a hollow heart, you get a hollow head
Dm         F                         C
You get to feel just like the living dead
Dm             F
Visions coming on
         C              Bb             Dm
But they never last for long when they arrive
C                    Dm
Here and gone again


[Chorus]
Bb                      F             C
Out in the street, wild dreams in our hearts
Bb                      F                   C
Trying to leave, but we don't know where to start
  Bb                      F
I don't want to live in a static age
C                        Dm
Staying in a place where nothing changes
   Bb    C    Dm
We can begin again


[Interlude]
Dm F C
Dm F C


[Verse 3]
Dm            F                C        Bb
Heard about a king in a golden mask
Dm             F               C
Heard about an empire built to last
Dm       F
Daylight comes
           C                Bb             Dm
Turned his face towards the sun, he was surprised
    C                   Dm
And not the same again


[Chorus]
Bb                      F             C
Out in the street, wild dreams in our hearts
Bb                      F                   C
Trying to leave, but we don't know where to start
  Bb                      F
I don't want to live in a static age
C                        Dm
Staying in a place where nothing changes
   Bb    C    Dm
We can begin again


[Bridge]
Bb                       F
Shouts ring out from the crowd below
C                 Dm               Bb
Every empire must rise and fall, I know
               F
Doubt from the crowd below
C                 Dm
Every empire must rise and fall and
Bb       F
Here and gone, love
C                 Dm
Into the light, into the light
   Bb    C    Dm
We can begin again
           Bb    C    Dm
Oh, oh, we can begin again
