Fire And The Thud

(início)

Em                       C Am
You showed me my tomorrow
Em                     C Am
Beside a box of matches
Em                        C Am
A welcome threatening stir
Em C Am
E                       C Am
My hopes of being stolen
Em
Might just ring true
Em                    C Am
Depends who you prefer
Em                            G
But if it's true you're gonna run away
C
Tell me where
C7
I'll meet you there
Em                          C Am
Am I snapping the excitement
Em                         C Am
If I pack away the laugther
Em                       C Am
And tell you how it feels
Em                             C Am
And does burden come to meet ya
Em                              C Am
If I've questions of the feature
Em                           C Am
that runs on your dream wheel
Em C Am
Em                G
The day after you stole my heart,
C                            C7                                Em C Am
Everything I touched told me it would be better shared with you
Em      C Am
With you
Am                          Em
And now you're hiding in my sleep
Am                          Em
And the book reveals your face
Am                          Em
And there's a splashing in my eyelids
Am                               Em
As the concentration continually breaks
      Am                   Em
I did request the mark you cast
        Am
Didn't heal as fast
C
I hear your voice in silences
         C7              *                       Em C Am
Will the teasing of the fire be followed by the thud?
Em C Am Em C Am
Em
And the jostling crowd
Em
You're not allowed to tell the truth
Em                          C Am
And the photo booth's a liar
Em C Am
Em                           C Am
And the sharpened explanation
Em
But there's no screaming reason to inquire
Em C Am
Em                            G
I'd like to poke them in their prying eyes
C                       C7                              Em
With things they never see if it smacked them in their temples
