Intro:
C F (X4)
Verse:
C F C
When it flows from the fingers
F
And turns to stone
C F
It shatters with the touch
C F C
Feel the air, breathe it in
F C
Turn the corner, take the bend
F
Give or take the bend
C F
It's a spiraling cork-screw path towards you
C F
It's a sinking, twisted path from me to you
Chorus:
F Em Dsus2 C
For a second I saw you so clearly, clearly
F Em Dsus2 C
For a moment I knew you so dearly, dearly
F Em Dsus2 C
I looked into your eyes and into your mind
F Em Dsus2 C
You were laughing like a statue come to life
Verse:
C F
The subtle piano raindrops
C F C
The creaking of the buildings and their cellos
F C
The wind was our violin
F C
The sky was a symphonic mural of stars
F C F
Hiding behind perfectly placed clouds
C
Because everything is the way it is
F C F
And everything is perfect in their imperfections
C F
And everything is placed the best
C F
And it is now, and it is here
C F
And tomorrow is another now
C F
Waiting to happen
Chorus:
F Em Dsus2 C
The roar of an action silences all the words
F Em
The cry of an accomplishment
Dsus2 C
Drowns the whimper of ten thousand words
F Em Dsus2 C
And we live in our actions and our reactions
F Em Dsus2 C
And we live in our actions and our reactions
