Pale New Dawn

(início)

Four Cornered Night
Words and music by Blake Schwarzenbach
Standard tuning

B                                   E
Sickly surrender to cola remember machines
F#                                      B
Shaky somnambulist shiver out all your screams
E                                               B
Go to the room with the chair and wait for your life
C#                                         B
Scared that the voices i hear may never be mine
Verse
B                                    E
Seven december a paper back letter recalls
F#                                              B
You knew such happiness crashing her loveliness one wedded fall
E                                                    B
Cutting through gray where you're holding the pages amazed
C#                                       B
Cutting the picture to ribbons in winter parades

   Pale new dawn put something on

You're thinking faster than i run

        B          A
Now the more i get connected
    A/Ab              E
The less i know who i am
       F#                      B (fade)
And it feels like i'm the only one
Verse 2 (same as first)
The month has gone rabbits the winter is taking my life
Am i a passenger passing through scenes in someone else's life
Cold will outlast me apartments are castles in space
Warm with the void holding court in a four poster grave
Chorus (same as first)
Pale new dawn put something on
I hate the shape of things to come
Now the more we get connected
The less i know who you are
I don't think you thought that far

       They gave you a food stamp for the air sucking wound in your chest

              All the best.            All the best.

   Strange pale fighter you only grow lighter in time

   Willfully silent declaring yourself with your cold scribbled rhyme

   Making her find you beneath all the skin of your mind

   She's digging towards nothing a hollowed out center in time
Chorus (same as first, but stop B instead of letting it ring)
Pale new dawn put someone on
I hate the shape of all you want
Now the more you get connected
The less i get who you are
But i don't want to think that hard

                  It's a lonely way to live

        When you take what you give (and you don't give in)

        In a nation of promises

        Your anonymous promises

That's it! Hell yes!
