[Verse 1]
          C                       G                  Am
There's a voice that pulls me stumbling through a symphony
        F            C
And the less of it I need,
           G
the more I get
         C                    Csus2/B              Am
'Til I'm swept up by the shape       of all the centuries
        F           G              C
Like an echo in the chambers of my chest
            C                  G             Am
I think she fears I'll be a servant to my history
Or worse,
  F                C                G
a slave to someone else's misplaced doubts
     C                   Csus2/B                  Am
So I try too hard to kill       what's out to kill  me
         F                G             C
'Til I'm blind and hiding in the lion's mouth

[Chorus]
        Fsus2                                   C
And the words she aches to hear pour through my canyon
            Fsus2                       G
And they're singing in the caverns of my limbs
             C             Csus2/B        Am
And though I do my best to try    to understand them
          F              G               C
They only follow me like vultures in the end

[Verse 2]
       C                       G                    Am
I once read that I should write something worth reading
     F                   C              G
Or I should do something worth writing about
          C                       Csus2/B            Am
And as my ears they buzz like bees       upon the ceiling
           F             G               C
I start to pour a little more than I'm allowed
           C                     G               Am
I said our hearts know deeper seasons than our memories
               F                C             G
She said "this harvest might sustain us for a year"
       C                    Csus2/B
And of all the thousand ways       the world could
     Am
tempt  me
           F            G                C
I've never met a better fighter than her fear

[Chorus]
        Fsus2                               C
So as I try  to breathe the air that she is breathing
       Fsus2                          G
And we dance a lightless dance upon my floor
     C               Csus2/B              Am
I am burning to tell her    she's all i'm needing
                F              G                 C
But i'm drowned out by all the noise outside the door

[Verse 3]
C                 G              Am
Carried by the current of the morning
F               C              G
Miles below the surface of the dawn
C                    Csus2/B               Am
This is not the place       that I was born  in
               F                 G               C   F C
But it doesn't mean it's not the place where I belong

There's a voice that pulls me stumbling through a symphony
And the less of it I need,

'Til I'm swept up by the shape       of all the centuries
