Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

x8

We sleep in single beds

x4

Excited to be out from the cold

We'll lose our interest

x4

When we realize we all sleep alone

So you come here tonight

Yeah, you come here tonight

 And we can find a plane and take it up

 And smoke the sky into our lungs

 And share the scarf your mother knit

 And cuddle close to make it fit

But we won't ever talk

No we don't ever talk

 We fight

x4

I'm mocked and sleepy and

x4

My eyes are such an odd shade of grey

So if i close them we'll just understand

x4

It's better off that way

They cannot pierce your heart

 No they cannot pierce your heart

 But I can sing the songs our fathers knew

 When they were kids in Catholic school

 Their heroes then are legends now

 But death has brought them to the ground

 And we won't ever talk

 No we won't ever talk

 We'll fight

 And I will find a bird, your favorite kind

 And hold him as to make him mine

 And he will bring a note to you

 A letter of the honest truth

 And it will tell you just to run

 Don't stop until the morning comes

 Or until my light has ceased to burn

 The dreams I wished I'd never learned

 About the times you'd wished you'd had

 But held them back to keep me sad

 So here tonight, we'll work this through

 If you don't come I'll come to you

 Because we don't ever talk

 No we don't ever talk

 We fight
