[Verse 1]
---------------------
Fm
  I didn't think that this could be
All that unto death do we
'til you managed the lock and magicked the key
After night of Hard Drinking and ecstasy

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
     Gb                         Bbm
It's softer than words that are spoken
Gb                        Fm
Blackened on paper that's shredded and torn
   Gb                       Bbm
Or carved into stones lying shattered and broken
CØ                    F
   Branches beckoned a long, long path
CØ                  Faug
   Winding up in the past

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Fm
  And this dark and velvet night
That surrounds us
This dark and velvet night
I will wrap around us

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
     Gb                         Bbm
It's softer than words that are spoken
   Gb                     Fm
Or painted as slogans and flung to the lions
Gb                      Bbm
Written on slips as the punters wait smoking
CØ                        F
   A leap of faith, the odd skyhigh
     CØ                      Faug
Said goodbye to your place or mine

[Bridge]
---------------------
F#m                   C#m7          Dmaj7
   Don't like to make promises that I    can't keep
C#m7 F#m                  C#m7                   Dmaj7        C#m7
        Don't want to hut this old heart or wreck     my sleep
                    F#m
Thinking how will we   part
      C#m7                  Dmaj7                C#m7
Will I    hold your hand or you  be left holding mine?
                    C
Between this breath and then
Em                        C
  There's this airlock of time
Em               Gm    C
  This airlock of  time

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Fm
  And this dark and velvet night
That surrounds us
This dark and velvet night
I will wrap around us

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
     Gb                         Bbm
It's softer than words that are spoken
       Gb                          Fm
In the towers of great cities that toppled and drowned
  Gb                           Bbm
Engraved on gold rings or some other love token
   CØ                F
No walls, no bells to sanctify
CØ                       Faug
This dark and velvet night
