Transience

Intro: C Dm C E F D F C 


      Am    G                                             Dm 
Istanbul, today, you said on the phone but I am barely awake 
Am                       G Fm G                     Dm 
You've been away for too long, my love, I’ve gone strange 
     Am              G                         Dm       G   Dm 
White birds falling down from the sky into the riverbed filled with ink 
                    Am    G                             D Dm 
It swallowed up all light and I will be snowed in as of tonight 
                           Am 
I haven't been outside for days

Am                                 G                      Dm 
If they're looking to be entertained, I wonder who they came for 
                       Am               F 
Now, everything I have left is on this stage 
            G              D Dm 
We load the car and drive off to any goddamn place 
       Am        Dm Am   G               F    D 
Last night in my sleep I climbed out the window 
     Dm                                  Am D F G Dm 
Saw a red tree glowing, floating in the air 
C           A#              F    Dm E 
I keep the thought of you a flame 


           Am              C          Dm 
How will I survive in this world gone mad? 
        C             E    F Dm    E     D  Dm 
There's no way now to find you, to find you 
Am                 C 
No human touch can bring me there 
     D    Dm       C                E    F Dm  E         Dm 
Now music takes me places, oh, just like you, just like you

D          Am              G          F 
How will I survive in this world gone mad? 
        C             E    F        E     F 
There's no way now to find you, to find you 
    Am             G 
No human touch can bring me there 
    F              C                E    F     E7       F 
Now music takes me places, oh, just like you, just like you
