Charades

Am

[Verse 1]
Am
I've never owned a camera, the 
pictures in my mind
G                          Dm
Instantly forgotten in the haste of 
passing time
Am
Put away your pedestal, hide your 
crystal ball
       G                         
If you find me out, please let me 
           Dm
know, I'd love to get the call


[Chorus]
   C                        E
We drift on the surface and die in 
the depths
        Am             G6         
As the skipping stone sinks to its
  D7
 grave
C         Fm          C
Charades, charades, charades

Am

[Verse 2]
Am
Sunday driving on a Tuesday 
afternoon
G                          Dm
I remember days that could never end
 too soon

Am
Ice melts, flashes fade, the chill 
will make you ache
G                          Dm
For the quiet of sobriety, I prayed 
that it would stay


[Chorus]
   C                        E
We drift on the surface and die in 
the depths
        Am             G6         
As the skipping stone sinks to its
  D7
 grave
C         Fm          C
Charades, charades, charades

E

[Bridge]
Am
A dream of form
E
In days of thought
C               D7
I sought to remain
Fm
But weary eyes
C
Make heavy hearts
E
That long to be chained

Am E Am E

[Verse 3]
Am
I think it was the record, but it 
sounded like the house
       G                         
If the music weren't so loud, you 
       Dm
could hear me crying out
     Am
Like two gut string guitars tuned a 
half step apart
          G                        
You can't tell me what you need and
       Dm
 so, I give you what I want


[Chorus]
   C                        E
We drift on the surface and die in 
the depths
        Am             G6         
As the skipping stone sinks to its
  D7
 grave
C         Fm          Am      G D7
Charades, charades, charades
