[INTRO]
[Bm] [D] [Em] Bsus4* [Bm] x2
[VERSE 1]
[Bm] [D] [Em] Bsus4* [Bm]
Do you see rhythms in the ocean water when it reflects the moon?
[Bm]If it hasn't alre[D]ady happened to [Em]you, it's gonna happen s[Bm]oon
[Bm] [D] [Em] Bsus4* [Bm]
Do the lines in your kitchen table only show you how to drown?
And your [Bm]mother's angst the [D]day you were born,[Em] the day you cut her [Bm]down
[PRE-CHORUS]
Bm* [A] [Em]
You used to have me by the arm
Bm* [A] [Em]
You'd walk me up the darkest stairways
Bm* [A] [Em]
Gone too high, I'm way too far
Bm* [A] [Em]
I've no idea where you are
[VERSE 2]
Do [Bm]leaves fall down in perfect [D]sentences?
[Em] Bsus4* [Bm]
Do maggots crawl your name?
Do [Bm]mirrors laugh at you be[D]hind your back?
Are you cons[Em]tantly ash[Bm]amed?
Do [Bm]roots slither be[D]tween your feet and [Em]chase you slowly [Bsus4]to the [Bm]sea?
Do [Bm]tree branches bend [D]down and ask you[Em] if you're finally [Bm]ready?
[PRE-CHORUS]
Bm* [A] [Em]
You used to have me by the arm
Bm* [A] [Em]
You'd walk me up the darkest stairways
Bm* [A] [Em]
Gone too high, I'm way too far
Bm* [A] [Em]
I've no idea where you are
[CHORUS]
When you [Bm]turn, when you [D]turn on me [Am] [Em]
Will I see you when you [Bm]turn, when you [D]turn on me?[Am] [Em]
Will I see you? When I [F#maj7]turn around will you [D]be there?
At the cent[Am]er of the world like you [Em]promised to be?
Will you [F#maj7]suddenly seem like a [D]stranger?
I can't [Am]tell anymore what you w[Em]ant from me
[VERSE 3]
Does your [Bm]family think you're [D]too far gone?
[Em] Bsus4* [Bm]
Do you wonder if they're right?
Are you [Bm]different than you [D]used to be?
Are you [Em]alone somewhere toni[Bm]ght?
[Bm] [D] [Em] Bsus4* [Bm]
Do you think maybe youâre just a little afraid and haven't really done the serious thinking?
Do I [Bm]really need to hold your [D]hand and walk you all the [Em]way up into the moon[Bm]light blinking?
[PRE-CHORUS]
Bm* [A] [Em]
You used to have me by the arm
Bm* [A] [Em]
You'd walk me up the darkest stairways
Bm* [A] [Em]
Gone too high, I'm way too far
Bm* [A] [Em]
I've no idea where you are
[CHORUS]
When you [Bm]turn, when you [D]turn on me [Am] [Em]
Will I see you when you [Bm]turn, when you [D]turn on me?[Am] [Em]
Will I see you? When I [F#maj7]turn around will you [D]be there?
At the cent[Am]er of the world like you [Em]promised to be?
Will you [F#maj7]suddenly seem like a [D]stranger?
I can't [Am]tell anymore what you w[Em]ant from me
