I like looking at the sky as the wind plays through
F#m E
The skirts of the trees the silence knows how afraid we are of it
A Bm F#m E A
Cherished memories bleed and bloom our secrets like seeds
Bm F#m E A
get swept up and carried through our neighborhood
D
Safe as houses tuck me in
A Bm E F#m E
Daylight waits for no man you’re still young
F#m
and breathing’s easy suck it in
A Bm E
what a waste this facade
A E F#m
What a pity we’ve come this far
F#m E

The rain will fall and baptize our strongholds our sheltered lives
F#m E
Closed blinds drawn curtains and vinyl floors can’t hide

Stained memories bleed and bloom our secrets like weeds

Creeps up to the roof of our neighborhood

Safe as houses tuck me in

Daylight waits for no man you’re still young
