Intro am c (twice)
(c) am c
As you look into an invisible landscape
Dm7 c
And the waves of time part behind your back
G
As your life crumbles and turns into fiction
Dm7 c
And the end of it becomes a fact
Am c
The ghosts of children will run in your garden
Dm7 c
And play with an imaginary ball
G
You will be released and pardoned
Dm7 c
Now there's nowhere left to fall
Dm7 c dm7 c
Chorus good bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye
Dm7 (add g) c dm7 c
Now fly fly fly fly fly fly fly fly fly
Am c
A steam rises out of the water
Dm7 c
And a mist hangs over the field
G
The tears of your wife and daughter
Dm7 c
Have all but released their yield
Am c
The ghosts of lovers will walk toward you
Dm7 c
And beckon you into their arms
G
And the mighty bells of chaos
Dm7 c
Will no longer sound their alarms
Chorus repeat (plus way way way way way)
Dm7 g
Shake off your carcass leave us in the dark
C c
That's us fumbling 'round like ants on the ground
Dm7 g
In palaces and hovels reading mystery novels
C c
But we never get the plot maybe you got it now
Dm7 g
Shake that mortal coil leave us to toil
C c
Take off that weight take off that weight
Dm7 g
Listen to the silence know the end of violence
C c
Is a clean slate is a clean slate
Chorus repeat /pre>
