Chorus 1
(E minor) So can we pretend (B minor) sweetly
Be (C major) fore the (G major) mystery ends? (D major)
I am a man (C major) with a heart that of (G major) fends

There's (E minor) only a (D major) shadow of me (G major)
in a (C major) matter of (G major) speaking I'm (D major) dead
Verse 2
(A minor) Such a (E minor) waste, your (B minor) beautiful face
(C major) Stumbling carpet (G major) arise (D major)
Go (A minor) follow your gem, (E minor)
your (B minor) white feathered friend
(C major) Icarus, point (G major) to the sun (D major)
If (A minor) history speaks (E minor) of (B minor) two baby teeth
I'm (C major) painting the hills (G major) blue and red (D major)
(A minor) They said beware, (E minor) (B minor) Lord hear my prayer
I've (C major) wasted my throes (G major) on your head (D major)
Chorus 2
(E minor) So can we be friends, (B minor) sweetly
Be (C major) fore the (G major) mystery ends? (D major)
I love you (C major) more
than the world can con (G major) tain
In its (C major) lonely and (G major) ramshackle (D major) head
There's (E minor) only a (D major) shadow of me (G major)
in a (C major) matter of (G major) speaking I'm (D major) dead

Verse 3
I'm (A minor) holding my breath (E minor)
My (B minor) tongue on your chest
(C major) What can be said (G major) of my heart? (D major)
If (A minor) history speaks, (E minor) the (B minor) kiss on my cheek
(C major) Where there remains (G major) but a mark (D major)
Be (A minor) loved my (E minor) John, so (B minor) I'll carry on
(C major) Counting my cards (G major) down to one (D major)
And (A minor) when I am dead, (E minor)
come (B minor) visit my bed
My (C major) fossil is bright (G major) in the sun (D major)
Chorus 3
(E minor) So can we contend, (B minor) peacefully
Be (C major) fore my (G major) history ends? (D major)
Jesus I (C major) need you, be near me,
come (G major) shield me
From (C major) fossils that (G major) fall on my (D major) head
There's (E minor) only a (D major) shadow of me (G major)
in a (C major) matter of (G major) speaking I'm (D major) dead
