Paroles

[Intro]
| F/A  | C/G  | Dm/F | C/E |
| G    | -    | F/A  | C/G |
| D/F# | Dm/F | G    | -   |

[Verse 1]
    F/A  C/G        Dm/F             C/E
The only thing that keeps me from driving this car
G F/A
  Halflight,
C/G        D/F#        Dm/F
jack knife into the canyon at night
G F/A       C/G      Dm/F           C/E
  Signs and wonders: Perseus aligned   with the skull
G F/A     C/G
  Slain Medusa,
D/F#          Dm/F
Pegasus alight    from us all

[Chorus]
G         Am        Em         F
 Do I care  if I survive this? Bury the dead where they`re
found
G         Am            Em
 In a veil  of great surprises,
  F
I wonder did you love me at all?

[Verse 2]
G    F/A  C/G        Dm/F             C/E
 The only thing that keeps me from cutting my arm
G F/A          C/G
  Cross hatch, warm bath,
D/F#       Dm/F
Holiday Inn    after dark
G F/A       C/G      Dm/F          C/E
  Signs and wonders: water stain riding the wall
G F/A      C/G
  Daniel`s message;
D/F#             Dm/F
blood of the moon    on us all

[Chorus]
G         Am        Em         F
 Do I care  if I despise this? Nothing else matters,
I know
G         Am            Em
 In a veil  of great disguises;
F
how do I live with your ghost?

[Bridge]
G             C            G
 Should I tear my eyes out now?
          C  F     C
Everything I see returns to you, somehow
G             C             G
 Should I tear my heart out now?
          C  F      C
Everything I feel returns to you,
       G Am
somehow
                       G
I want to save you from your sorrow

[Interlude]
| F/A  | C/G  | Dm/F | C/E |
| G    | -    | F/A  | C/G |
| D/F# | Dm/F | G    | -   |

[Verse 3]
    F/A  C/G    Dm/F       C/E
The only reason why I continue at all
G F/A      C/G
  Faith in reason,
  D/F#          Dm/F
I wasted my life    playing dumb
G F/A       C/G      Dm/F          C/E
  Signs and wonders: sea lion caves   in the dark
G F/A          C/G
  Blind faith, God`s grace,
D/F#             Dm/F
nothing else left    to impart

[Chorus]
G         Am        Em         F
 Do I care  if I survive this? Bury the dead where they`re
found
G         Am            Em
 In a veil  of great surprises;
F
hold to my head till I drown

[Bridge]
G             Am   Em       F
 Should I tear  my eyes out now,
                 G
before I see too much?
             Am   Em       F                      G
Should I tear  my arms out now? I wanna feel your touch

[Outro]
             C            G
Should I tear my eyes out now?
          C  F     C
Everything I see returns to you, somehow
G             C             G
 Should I tear my heart out now?
          C  F      C
Everything I feel returns to you,
somehow
G Am G
