Standard (EADGBE)

And now the song (this IS how it sounds):

Intro

Riff

Verse

Smells in the air,

See there it's crashing the final impression that stains the paper

Where the words felt like water,

Unearth all the changes that never did matter,

I think it's beginning to freeze here

after riff:

Caught in the rage and the fire of things,

All the brightness that burns me, I'm fumbling through like a

Child in the dark, when the nakedness comes,

I am shocked by the colour, the glorious weight of your

Chorus

first word of chorus is the end of the previous sentance):

Skin

Comes alive

And I never thought we'd make it back so soon

Might be nice

But I knew you'd be your own destroyer

Comes a time

G D riff with chords

When I always thought I'd make it up to... you

Verse 2

(after end of riff)

Here please forgive me,

how could we escape all the bitterness piled upon bitterness?

Held in the face of the things that I don't understand

Intellectualize, over and over this helplessness suits us,

It's funny how quiet has slipped to our corners and worn all our edges

Away you are watching, breathing and baiting,

Wanting and warming and cautiously waiting

For some simple signal, to creep 'cross our conscience,

Uncover redemption and oh did I mention I

Carried you down, to the St. Lawrence River,

The banks running dirty, the water is beginning to freeze here,

Solid by morning,

And I'll freeze here,

Be winter by mornaaaayaayaaiang

Chorus 2

Comes alive

And I never thought you'd get me back so soon

Might be nice

But it's only my own destroyer

Comes a time

G D riff with chords

When I always knew I'd make it up to... you

Verse 3, more quiet: (After riff)

I saw on your face, such a curious grin,

As I let go your hand I was desparate to hold you

Again, but you're sinking, too deep in the water,

Outsmarted myself, and so easily gave up what I

(insert riff here)

Wanted,

Solid by morning,

What I wanted,

Be winter by mornaaaayaayaaiang

Chorus 3

Comes alive

And I never thought you'd make it up so soon

Might be nice

But I always knew you're my destroyer

Comes a time

G D riff with chords

When I always thought I'd make it up to... you

Outro

after riff):

Solid by morning
