Intro: 
Gm Dm Eb (x2) 

 
    Gm           Dm  F 
Can I hold your love between my ribs 
          Eb       Dm                F 
While you weigh me down to something thin? 
     Gm         Dm    F 
When I get back up,   feeble and frail 
     Eb          Dm              F 
Then I won't see you as the same again 
N.C. 
You were oh so quiet when I needed you 
N.C. 
Was clamoring for something true 
 

 
    Gm     Dm            Eb 
Now I,     if I close my eyes, I can feel you 
Gm          Dm             Eb              F 
Vanish into blinding light to what I can't recognize 
    Gm Dm              Eb 
Now I  splinter and divide, but go on breathing 
Gm             Dm          Eb               Cm 
Leave me to my own device, time was all I'd need to see it 
 

 
Gm        Dm   F 
Before I quit, I got to vent 
        Eb           Dm              F 
But the sorrow draws lines across my chest 
     Gm         Dm 
Ooh, pale in my lips, 
    F 
My chin's so high, it broke my neck 
     Eb         Dm             F 
And I can nver see you as the same again 
N.C. 
I ignor the chatter of my mind, I sink into the scene to hide 
N.C. 
All the color is a mess, is there a means? Is there an end to this? 
 

 
    Gm     Dm            Eb 
Oh, I,     if I close my eyes, I can feel you 
Gm          Dm             Eb              F 
Vanish into blinding light to what I can't recognize 
    Gm Dm              Eb 
Now I  splinter and divide, but go on breathing 
Gm             Dm          Eb               Cm 
Leave me to my own device, time was all I'd need to see it 
 

 
Eb                                 Gm 
      You drift further by the day 
Eb                                         F 
      You took a twist of a memory that we made 
Eb Cm     Dm   Gm 
   Ribbed with loneliness and shame 
Eb Cm Dm F 
      All to my own dismay 
 

 
N.C. 
I,     if I close my eyes, I can feel you 
Gm          Dm             Eb              F 
Vanish into blinding light to what I can't recognize 
    Gm Dm              Eb 
Now I  splinter and divide, but go on breathing 
Gm             Dm          Eb               Cm 
Leave me to my own device, time was all I'd need to see it
