[Intro ]Am  C  F  
      C  F  C  G 

Am               C 
You needn't be a chamber 
   F             C          G         Am    G         F 
To house all the echoes and voices of those that have left you 
        C          G         Am        G   F                 G 
Are you talking to me or somebody that you once knew passing through? 
      Am                     C 
Do we talk anymore or do our voices 
      F          C          G                Am   G      F 
Dance around themselves in circles, till we can't hear a damn thing? 
       C        G             Am     G   F        C       G 
We're still as stone but our shadows are dancing upon the wall 


Am                  C             F                  C 
Oh, if you ever get tired of your conversations with ghosts 
        F                       C 
And all those that you let too close 
               G 
I'll be waiting 
            Am               C 
And I'll go swimming in the caves 
        F               C 
In the sparkle in your eyes 
                 F                             C 
They're just the tears you don't let yourself cry 
     G 
Trying, so hard to say goodbye 

( Am  C  F  C  F  C  G ) 

Am                  C 
Precious little mercies 
      F                   C              G               Am    G     F 
As I stumble between the pillars of this worn-out hacienda in the moonlight 
     C                G        Am        G    F 
Sometimes it takes a storm to appreciate the still night 
              C        G 
Don't let the darkness in 
Am               C 
Your voice just raging 
     F           C                   G              Am      G             F 
But how can I protect you from what happened to you then, what's already been? 
         C            G         Am     G           F 
I can't give you the words that really should have come from him 
           C              G 
Baby, I'm showing you my hand 

Am                  C             F                  C 
Oh, if you ever get tired of your conversations with ghosts 
        F                       C 
And all those that you let too close 
               G 
I'll be waiting 
            Am               C 
And I'll go swimming in the caves 
        F               C 
In the sparkle in your eyes 
                 F                             C 
They're just the tears you don't let yourself cry 
     G 
Trying, so hard to say goodbye
