Intro 1
(A minor)
Verse 1
Dark (A minor) night,
but there's plenty to be (G major) lieve (A minor) in
Why'd you have to let her
touch your feel (D minor) ings? (A minor)
I always gave you everything
that you needed
All you had to do was ask,
but you (D minor) just got (F major) greedy (A minor)
Now (D minor) the only time (G major) we talk is
(C major) when we talk (G major) alone (A minor)
(G major) To the (F major) voices that you leave on (E minor) (E major) your
mech (E minor) anical tele (A minor) phone (A major)
Sometimes (D minor) I call just to hear
(G major) your voice set free (C major)
(G major) the tongues and claws (A minor)
But the (F major) memory I keep
doesn't (E major) really let me
leave any word (A minor) at all
violin so (D minor) (E minor) lo (A minor) (C major) (D minor) (F major)
(A minor) You was like any woman
who was easy
(D minor) Hope you've met your match
But can she free (A minor) me?
You always said I'd be the first to walk
You say I'm (D minor) al ways the first to talk
But can she free (A minor) me? (A major)
Now (D minor) we rarely talk (G major) alone
We (C major) usually (G major) speak in groups (A minor)
To the (F major) people you invite
For the (E major) theater and a bite
Who are (A minor) used to you (A major)
They (D minor) like to listen to their (G major) own mouths move,
they like to (C major) watch your jaw (B minor) drop too (A minor)
(G major) But the (F major) way the seasons fade when the (E major) covers are made,
and I'm (A minor) so far away (G major) (E minor) (A minor) (D minor)
Mmmm (A minor) (D minor) (F major) (D minor) (A minor)
Bet you thought it'd be an easy thing
Bet you thought (D minor) I lived alone
(A minor) Wonder for the vision and the after -play
(D minor) I've had (D major) better (D minor) times alone (F major)
(G major) Now and rarely talk of love
We (C major) only (G major) speak of meat (A minor)
An (G major) d the (F major) sacrifice of life
To the (E major) altar and the knife
On a mound (A minor) of grief
(D minor) Rarely caught just to hear (G major) your voice
Set free (C major) (G major) in the pillars and stones (A minor)
But (E minor) (C major) for the (F major) company
I keep when I speak
(E major) To your mechanical tele (A minor) phone
It's the (D minor) company I keep (F major) when I (D minor) speak
(E major) You're a mechanical tele (E minor) phone
(C major) (A minor) (C major) The (D minor) company I keep
(E minor) (E major) (A minor) (D minor) (A minor) (D minor)
you
