[Intro]
E E/Eb B A
(x2)
[Verse]
E E/Eb A
Her body is a difficult sister and she loves her
E E/Eb A
And hides her somewhere in herself, safe from harm
E E/Eb A
She's barely coasting into a paycheck, stuck on empty
E E/Eb A
Her blue eyes frozen green in the low-lit ATM
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A
I need a way to measure the distance
F#m C#m
I need a way to say why
A
Out of breath or out of key
F#m C#m E E/Eb B
Her voice resonated in me
[Chorus]
A E E/Eb B
Wish on everything
A E E/Eb B
Pray that she remains
A C#m Esus2
Proud and strange and so hopelessly hopeful
[Verse]
E E/Eb A
Her body is a difficult sister and she loves her
E E/Eb A
And hides her somewhere in herself, safe from harm
E E/Eb A
Her night shift is over, she's writing you a postcard
E E/Eb A
To say that she's okay and it's raining there again
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A
My fury's rising faster than bus fares
F#m C#m
Could someone clarify why
A
There's no structured narrative?
E C#m E E/Eb B
No neat storyline to explain
[Chorus]
A E E/Eb B
Wish on everything
A E E/Eb B
Pray that she remains
A C#m Esus2
Proud and strange and so hopelessly hopeful
[Chorus]
A E E/Eb B
Wish on everything
A E E/Eb B
Pray that she remains
A C#m Esus2
Proud and strange and so hopelessly hopeful
[Chorus]
E E/Eb B
Wishes and prayers are the way
A
Wish on everything
E E/Eb B
That we leave the lonely alone
A
Pray that she remains
E E/Eb B
And push the wounded away
A C#m Esus2
Proud and strange and so hopelessly hopeful
[Break]
E G#m C#m B A
[Bridge]
E G#m
She shoplifts some Christmas gifts and a bracelet for herself
C#m B A
And considers phoning home, has some quarters in her hand
E G#m
But she sits down on the sidewalk and bites her bottom lip
C#m B A
And spends the afternoon willing traffic lights to change
[Break]
E G#m C#m B A
