[Verse 1]
---------------------
          C                       G                  Am
There's a voice that pulls me stumbling through a symphony
        F            C                G
And the less of it I need, the more I get
         C                    Cmaj7sus2            Am
'Til I'm swept up by the shape       of all the centuries
        F           G              C
Like an echo in the chambers of my chest
            C                  G             Am
I think she fears I'll be a servant to my history
            F                C                G
Or worse, a slave to someone else's misplaced doubts
     C                   Cmaj7sus2                Am
So I try too hard to kill       what's out to kill  me
         F                G             C
'Til I'm blind and hiding in the lion's mouth

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
        Fsus2                                   C
And the words she aches to hear pour through my canyon
            Fsus2                       G
And they're singing in the caverns of my limbs
             C             Cmaj7sus2      Am
And though I do my best to try    to understand them
          F              G               C
They only follow me like vultures in the end

[Verse 2]
---------------------
       C                       G                    Am
I once read that I should write something worth reading
     F                   C              G
Or I should do something worth writing about
          C                       Cmaj7sus2          Am
And as my ears they buzz like bees       upon the ceiling
           F             G               C
I start to pour a little more than I'm allowed
           C                     G               Am
I said our hearts know deeper seasons than our memories
               F                C             G
She said "this harvest might sustain us for a year"
       C                    Cmaj7sus2                   Am
And of all the thousand ways       the world could tempt  me
           F            G                C
I've never met a better fighter than her fear

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
        Fsus2                               C
So as I try  to breathe the air that she is breathing
       Fsus2                          G
And we dance a lightless dance upon my floor
     C               Cmaj7sus2            Am
I am burning to tell her    she's all i'm needing
                F              G                 C
But i'm drowned out by all the noise outside the door

[Verse 3]
---------------------
C                 G              Am
Carried by the current of the morning
F               C              G
Miles below the surface of the dawn
C                    Cmaj7sus2             Am
This is not the place       that I was born  in
               F                 G               C   F C
But it doesn't mean it's not the place where I belong
