[Intro]
[D] [G] [Em] [C] [D]
[D] [G] [Em7] [C] [D]
[Verse]
[D]Cold through broken base[G]boards, [Em]I despise [C]this [D]town
[D]Snow on the sunr[Am]oof, [C]two stories down[C] [G] [D]
[D]Hold [G]hands, [D]wish the snow away[Em].
[D]Rise in the dark[Am]ness o[C]f the gathering day[C] [G] [D]
[Cborus]
[Bm]Sing, [F#]sing for our[D]selves alone[G]
[Bm]Speak in[F#]to the [D]microphone[G].
[Verse]
[D]Cedar smudge our head[G]bands [Em]and take [C]to the [D]skies
[D]Soar ever upwar[Am]ds on [C]air gone black with flies[C] [G] [D]
[D]Shroud ourselves in the [G]cosmos, [D]let the music [Em]play
[D]Bright star of the morni[Am]ng, [C]shine on his rising way[C] [G] [D]
[Cborus]
[Bm]Sing in the [F#]night [D]in the nameless dark[G]
[Bm]Father long [F#]gone [D]but we bear his mark[G]
[F#m]Learn some [C]secrets, [G]never [D]tell
[F#m]Stay [Em]sick, [C]don't [G]get [D]well
[Verse]
[D]Clutch those broken head[G]boards, [Em]ride the [C]highest [D]wave
[D]Dusky diamonds [Am]shining in the far [C]depths of the cave[C] [G] [D]
[D]Try to ex[G]plain ourselves, [D]babble on and on[Em]
[D]By the [Am]time you rec[C]eive this, we'll be gone[C] [G] [D]
[Cborus]
[Bm]Sing, [F#]sing high, [D]while the fire climbs[G]
[Bm]Sing o[F#]ne for [D]the old times[G]
