[Intro]
Eb Gm F
Gm Bb F
Bb Eb
Gm Dm Eb
[Verse]
Eb Gm F
I'm turning out the lights
Cm Bb F
To remember how to see
Bb F Eb
Until a renaissance takes place
Gm Dm Eb
And resuscitates the color of paint and divinity
[Verse]
Eb Gm F
As if God hid the building blocks
Cm Gm F
Of every beautiful thing
Bb F Eb
In this game of hide and seek
Gm Dm Ebmaj7
I can't help but think that ordinary has swallowed the key
[Bridge]
Cm Eb
Bodies fashioned out of dirt and dust
Gm F
For a moment we get to be glorious
Cm Bb
Ice sculptures adorned in light
Gm F Cm
Sand castles built tall in between the tides
[Chorus]
Bb Gm
Maybe I'm hiding behind metaphor
F Cm
Maybe my heart needs to break to be sure
Eb Gm
One day I'll wear it all on my sleeve
F C
The insignificant with the sacred unique
[Verse]
F9 Am7 G
But I've fallen in love with a ghost
Dm C G
And I lost my balance when I needed it most
C F
This blurry photograph is proof
Am Em
Of what I'm not sure but it feels like truth
[Verse]
F9 Am G
I'm stuck swimming in shadows down here
Dm C G
It's been forever since I came up for air
C D
Flashlight in hand determined to find
C Em C Em
Authenticity only poetry could even begin
F
to try to describe
Dm F9 Am G
[Bridge]
Dm F Am
Bodies fashioned out of dirt and dust
G
For a moment we get to be glorious
F9 Am7 G
Get to be glorious
E E7 Am G C G D
Get to be glorious
C G
[Outro]
F9 Am7 G
What if we already are
E E7 Am
Who we've been dying to become
C D
In certain light I can plainly see
C Em
A reflection of magnificence
C Em
Hidden in you
C
Maybe even in me
