Intro
Am     F   Am     F   Dm      E     C  
Am     F   (pause) Am    C   Am  Dm      E     Am 
  
Verse
Am                                                  Em
It starts with a spark, a breath and a moment of still,
                                 Dm
A flicker, a glow, as the oxygen spills through a delta of spindles and stone,
E
Kindled from nothing in a whisper of smoke.

Am                                                  Em
And there a gift ignites; a cursive thought takes flight,
          
And there's a dancer, twisting in between the spines.
Dm                                                    E
Give her the breather's kiss, and watch her spirit lift,
                                                   F
She'll take over the stage, and she'll own the night.

Prechorus
                          Am           G                  F
Learning how to make a name from the words we can't keep in.
          C                   Am             G
Learning how to strike a flame, and draw hellfire from nothing.

Chorus
C                       Am            Em
I don't know where to begin, to make these words take shape,
C                 Am                  F          C
How to nurture a flame, and raise it to a blaze
                        Am         Em        C
That on the clearest night can be seen forever.
                        Am       F         C
I don't know where to begin, begin again.

Verse
Am                                                   Em
It's not enough, cause outside the night is still cold.
                                    Dm
The fog is collected on the sill.
                                          E
Feed the house to the fire to let out the light,
                                                    Am
Consumed and inspired, burned magnesium white.


It spills from the hearth.
                      Em                                    Dm
Take the curtains, the carpet to fuel the insatiable fire inside.
                                                          E
We'll set fire to a hill, so intense that it will be the brightest star 
                            F
on this side of the sky.

Pre-chorus
                           Am          G                  F
Learning how to make a name from the words we can't keep in.
          C                  Am             G
Learning how to strike a flame, and draw hellfire from nothing.

Chorus
C                        Am             Em
I don't know where to begin, to make these words take shape,
C                  Am                F          C
How to nurture a flame, and raise it to a blaze
                         Am           Em         C
That on the clearest night can be seen forever.
                       Am       F           C
I don't know where to begin, begin again.

I don't know where to begin, to make these words take shape,
Am      
How to nurture a flame, and raise it to a blaze
Em                               
That on the clearest night can be seen forever.

A Fire On A Hill

Gbm              A          Em           G
There's no more wind to be found in the sails
Gbm              A    Em              G
Hands full of fallen stars and comet tails

Gbm        A         Em                G
Rivers of sand unentwined through my hands
    Gbm               A              Em           G
To know what they've seen, well, my burden's all pale

Gbm                              A
I'll make an hourglass from my fingers
Gbm                       G
I know I'm only passing through

Gbm            A          Em           G
There's no respite to be found in the waves
Gbm              A          Em              G
Each rise and retreat will scrub the blood away

C                        Em        D
Pry the darkness from my eyes.
C                Am         Bm
Divided, let the light seep in.
C                                   Em         D
Trees devoid of branches and hollow hives. 
C                    Am    Em    Bm
An endless black and empty beds.

C                  Am
It's not the same, something's changed.
Em                 D                    C
I never used to be able to see past the trees.
           Am      Em                         Bm             Em   Bm   Am(drums)
A thousand unfamiliars are lying thick on the air and I can't breathe.


C                             Am                Em           D
Is our skin to keep the world out or our bodies in?
C                      Am                           Em           G
This doesn't look like home; this doesn't look like home.
C                             Am/Bm               Em           D
Is our skin to keep the world out or our bodies in?
C                   Am                         Em           D
I'll tear apart the town then sleep, and sleep alone.

Em                                C               Am                           Em
If I'm a flame, I'm a forest fire speaking savage tongues as I emerge from the hills.
                   C
I am an avalanche, I am unchained.
Am                       C
I'm awoken, I'll unleash hell.
     Am                 Em                 D                  C   Am               Em    Bm
So I roar, pin back my ears, and stone by stone I'll tear it all, I'll tear it apart.

C                             Am                Em           D

C                             G                 Em

           D                  Em
I've lost faith, the forest's changed.
             G                  C
My stomach's empty, I'm feeling faint.
          D                   Em
I've lost heart, the forest's scarred.
          G                   C
I hear no birds, just TVs and cars.
          D                    Em
I've lost faith, the forest's changed.
             G                  C
My stomach's empty, I'm feeling faint.

          D                    Em
I've lost sight, the forest's died.
                 G                    C
The brambles are bare, and I'm hollow inside.

Each breath rattles like dice in my chest, each breath gambled, unwinding till death.

A Tale Of Outer Suburbia

(Before the he starts singing the first verse and it leads in with: B , Db)

Db                Ebm                  B
We get in our own way, tripping on our feet.
               Ebm                                   B
Filling up our heads too much with words too hard to speak.
              Ebm                           B
Drowning in a place, where the night cannot escape, commit ourselves into the
Ebm                       B
depths, exposed against a page.


B                   Db                      B                        Db
Caught in a phrase, an echo in our minds, a flash, a flood, and it's burned into our eyes.


B             Ebm     Db                  F#     B
  and I can't explain enough, and I won't let it last the night.
              Ebm      Db             Ebm
I'll show you that the image is still there unseen.
B            Ebm        Db           F#       B                          Ebm
It's darkest before the light, if we shut our eyes to see the things that we have
Db
lost inside the lines between.


B                      Db                           Ebm                           F#
  Between the black and white, where everything goes grey, and everything's unsaid,
                                   B                    Db                         Ebm
undone, and the negative bleeds away to reveal the memory that we've waited for so long for.
                        F#
The image shifts and the acid drips down the paper to the floor.


B                   Db                      B                        Db
Caught in a phrase, an echo in our minds, a flash, a flood, and it's burned into our eyes.


B             Ebm     Db                  F#     B
  and I can't explain enough, and I won't let it last the night.
              Ebm      Db             Ebm
I'll show you that the image is still there unseen.
B            Ebm        Db           F#       B                           Ebm
It's darkest before the light, if we shut our eyes to see the things that we have
Db
lost inside the lines between.


B                       Ebm        Db               B                 Ebm             Db
  We're so nervous to see if we've let too much in, if we, if we were out of focus or 
out of frame.
B                       Ebm         Db           B               Ebm          Db
I know it's a moment of truth, if a recollection reflects reality, or if it's lost forever.


B             Ebm     Db                  F#     B
  and I can't explain enough, and I won't let it last the night.
              Ebm      Db             Ebm
I'll show you that the image is still there unseen.
B            Ebm        Db           F#       B                          Ebm

    Db             Ebm      B
The image is still there, unseen.

Am
  All I know is we can't move closer.


    F   D5              Am            G
and I've never seen the lights of the north,

The constellations are so unfamiliar.

  Searching for some apparent place,
             Em                     F
Where floated needles decide the way.
              Am                          G
I'd dig in my heels but I might crack the ice.
             G#        Am
Give me some solid ground.

Am                       D5
  The frost is sinking in, in my cheeks,
      E5                 Am
In my chest, in my fingertips.
                             D5              E5      
'Desperation,' we name every cape beyond the last.
Am                      D5              E5
Frozen senseless. Every day is a winter solstice.
Am                         D5            E5
The view's a wonder, but I can't take it in.

    F   D5              Am            G
and I've never seen the lights of the north,
            F          D5     Am  G
The constellations are so unfamiliar.

F         Am        G                Em           F     
Sun, make canvas of coastlines, so I know where I stand.
     Am        G                Em           F
Make canvas of coastlines, so I know where I stand.

Sun, make canvas of coastlines, so I know where I stand.
(We round each cape to find a bay to call our own.)
     Am        G      Em
Make canvas of coastlines.
(We round each cape to find a coast to call our home.)

The constellations are so unfamiliar.

So unfamiliar, so unfamiliar.

        F    D5       Am  G  F
So unfamiliar, so unfamiliar.
(Make canvas of coastlines.)

  The disconnect

Is welling up
     D     G  D               Bm
And good intentions are not enough

Your words are weary

Their hearts are strained

And idle vows find the deepest pains

  I'm sick, I'm tired
Of hollow hope
Bm    D      G    D

Your way with words

They're feeding back inside my head

I Am

[Intro]

Em - C - Em - D - Em



Em
I wonder, can you daydream at night?
C                     D
Lying awake, I've had too much time.
Em
I'm watching picture shows in the shadows
                      C
Dance for the crowd tonight.
     D                               C
Imagination is such a vivid place to hide, 
                  D
While stars watch over you.


               Em
Through silent homes
                         D
The lights are out but I walk these halls,
                      C
The way I've walked before,
               D                                  Em
Sleeping, with saints and apparitions between the walls.
                         D
The lights are out but I walk these halls,
C                                        D                      Em
I promised not to wake you, so I'll walk light, just so you can hear,


                                         C
The rats in the roof and termites in the ceiling.
           D                                 Em
We'll hear everything except what we need to hear.
                                       C
Sleeplessness is for the restless, and I'm just fine,
        D                    C              D
Left to wander, aimless in unconsciousness.


Em              D                               C
There's spiders crawling from the corners of my eyes.
                            D                                    Em
Let them weave their little webs to snatch the sunlight from the lens.
                   D                                  C
I'm staring at the ceiling 'cause I'm fed up with the sight.
                         D                              C
Weigh my eyelids back to sleep, sealed by silken silver threads,
                  D
While stars watch over you.


               Em
Through silent homes
                         D
The lights are out but I walk these halls,
                      C
The way I've walked before,
               D                                  Em
Sleeping, with saints and apparitions between the walls.
                         D
The lights are out but I walk these halls,
C                          D
Cast the sheep out of your mind,
                                   Em
Count the wolves and we'll sleep tonight.


Em                          D                         C
I stumble in and I stumble out of unfamiliar rooms in foreign houses,
    D
But I'm at home, 
Em                          D
Now a ghost that has left behind his sheets,
              C     D                                        C
Unrequited, until I wake up somewhere I know that I've never been.
               D                Em
I'll stay 'til sleep takes over you.
               D                C
I'll stay 'til sleep takes over you.
                    D                Em
And I'll walk while stars watch over you.
                    D                C
And I'll walk while stars watch over you.



               Em
Through silent homes
                         D
The lights are out but I walk these halls,
                      C
The way I've walked before,
               D                                  Em
Sleeping, with saints and apparitions between the walls.
                         D
The lights are out but I walk these halls,
                      C
The way I've walked before,
               D                                  Em
Sleeping, with saints and apparitions between the walls.
                        D
The lights are out but I walk these halls,
C                          D
Cast the sheep out of your mind,
                                   C
Count the wolves and we'll sleep tonight.

This is happiness, to be everything at once.

 Be unblinded, be unlearned, be unbridled and unburned.
 

A     C#m     B 2X



    A          C#m               B
Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind.
    A             C#m               B
 Tassels streaming from our necks, we cast a wake amidst the wind.
                A            C#m               B
 We're the roamers to the road, barebacked, spirit and in mind.

 All to be free like this.

We're branded and we're burdened from the moment we are born.

 We're domestic and we're discontent, and we're grinding our gums raw

 Unknown, unblind, run free, run wild and leave behind what holds you down.

Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind.

This is happiness, to be everything at once.
      Cadd9         G             Em
Be unblinded, be unlearned, be unbridled and unburned.

Cadd9        G                Em              D
Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind.
        Cadd9              G                Em              D
Tassels streaming from our necks, we cast a wake amidst the wind.
          Cadd9          G                 Em            D
We're the roamers to the road, barebacked, spirit and in mind.
  Cadd9   G         Em
Oh, to be free like this.

With splinters in our teeth, we're driven from our parallels,
           Cadd9            G                    Em           D
Our path a prison, bound to walk where countless feet already fell.

We're domestic and we're discontent, and we're grinding our gums raw
Cadd9       G                   Em   D     (G)
Forget your feet and where they fall,
Cadd9     G           Em     D     (G)
Lift your head, carry on.
Cadd9         G                   Em                 D      (G)
No fear, just faith, no bit, just break the path and let it lead you.
Cadd9      G                    Em             D           (G)
Unknown, unblind, run free, run wild and leave behind what holds you down.

The Sower

Intro: C#m, B

C#m
  The gasoline is mixing with the oxygen
B
  In this carousel, the silence is so surreal
C#m
  I've been misled through empty streets to the
B
Heart that never beats of a body that I can't keep

[Verse 1]

C#m                                    A         B
  We're blessed with these horrors for highways
           C#m                                      A
This city turns, no longer content to just brush shoulders
B         F#m  E   C#m
  Have we lost our touch?

[Break 1]

C#m
  A light goes on

We throw our blankets aside

It's been hours now and we still know nothing
    B                  C#m
The scars just don't heal the same, when we collide

[Pre-Chorus]
C#m                                 A  
  I'd never say that we step to the other side 
   B                              
To keep us from brushing shoulders
C#m                                A                    B
  But it's collisions we need to remind us that we're alive

[Chorus]

A                        B
  I'd never say that you make me sick, but you're
C#m
Turning all the questions to cancers
A                      B
  Someone call in the emergency and we'll 
C#m
Peel back the dressings so we can see
A                             B
  The kind of things that the surgeons see
         C#m                          G#m
When the blood work won't give us the answers
A                              B                     C#m
  They'll never tell us, cause they don't know whats
C#m          A  B 
killing us

[Break 2]

C#m                                                     
  My heart's at a million miles an hour as we 
              C/G#
Brace for the impact, it makes time stand still
C#m                                             
  Forcing momentum into a moment so for a
       C/G#
Split second, I see your face
C#m
  In between all the broken glass hanging like a mobile
C/G#
This is a picture we'll never quite forget

[Bridge]

C#m
  The surgeons pick, they pick at my body 
  
Their fingers dance, they dance all around me
C#m
  The surgeons pick, they pick at my body 
E                                      G#m
  Their fingers dance, they dance all around me
C#m
  Hold still while they pick at my body 
E                                      G#m
  Their fingers dance, they dance all around me
A
  Hold still while they pick at my body
B         C#m             (G#m)
  They'll dance all around me

[Build]

A                            B      C#m    G#m
  Breathe your anesthetic words to slow us down.
A                                    B
  Tear back the skin to find, to chase a pulse back home.

[Chorus]

Desnudar el sin razón
que modelo nuestras vidas
Parece ser causa perdida.

Nadie apuesta detener
el motor que contamina
el aire que a diario respiras

Y que respiraste ayer,
Como intro
y que mañana tal vez, no lo sé.
Por eso hoy

Reflexionando en esto,

Derrame de combustible, exterminio forestal.
El motor contaminante no se detendrá.
Para ser hay otro día en el planeta inferior.
Como cualquier día, como todo día
Con o sin mi reflexión.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Beautiful Girls

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#
I'm going where the people know my name

Donde hay numeros en vez de acordes es porque no se
como se llaman esos acordes y pongo abajo como se hacen




F9/A Cm
Ya no sé donde fue,
F9/A C
con su luz tu verdad,
F9/A Cm
avanzar y no avanzar,
1 G
que loco remolino,

ya no ves . . .

ya no ves . . .

la maldad que hay allí . . .

solo estás en tu cruz,

oh déjame explorarte,
F4 C
solo extiéndete una vez más . . .
F4 C
extiéndete una vez más . . .

la canción de la sed,

como el agua se nos fue . . .

líbrame . . .

Oh! líbrame . . .

Líbrame de la galaxia

ya no ves . . .

ya no ves

lo que ya sé nos pasó

respirar y oxidar,

y olvidarse y no fumar . . .

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

exiténdete una vez más . . .

extiendete una vez más

extiendete una vez más

Nota: C B y
Am 2
eres mi esperanza
Am 3
solo una grieta en mi existir . . .
4
no somos solo hombres
5 6 7
y como fondo un cielo.

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe,

tal vez

me sentirás tal vez

me sentirás

las aguas en tus ojos

vibran su dulce brillo

una piel y una flor

son tus pechos,

que no piensan menos mal,

oh por favor,

gira loca girasol . . .

déjame como estoy,

ya te amé y allí morí,

quédate quédate oh!

déjame explicarte,

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

extiéndete una vez más . . .

eres mi esperanza,

solo una grieta en mi existir . . .

no somos solo cuerpos,

y como un fondo un cielo . . .

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe

tal vez me sentirás

tal vez me sentirás

Andar

C
Working the village shop
E
Putting a poster up
Am
Dreaming of anything
C              Am               Em               Dm
Dreaming of the time when you're free from all the trouble you're in

C
In the mud, on your knees
E
Trying hard not to please
Am
Anyone, all the time
C              Am
Being a rebel's fine
           Em            C
But you go all the way to being brutal

Chorus:
G
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
F
On the first bus out of town
On the first bus out of town

Let's see your kit for games
All the girls look the same
You are challenging style for running miles
You're running miles in some boy's jumper

Boo to the business world!
You know a girl who's tax free on her back and making
Plenty cash
While you are working for the joy of giving

Chorus:
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
And you hope that she will see
And you hope that she will see

You are in two minds
Tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your mum
About a dose of thrush you got while licking railings

But you read in a book
That you got free from Boots
There are lotions, there are potions
You can take to hide your shame from all those prying eyes

Lazy Jane, all the time
Painting lines
You sleeping at bus stops
Wondering how you got your name
And what you're going to do about it.
