Verse 1
C 
When you're one of us
You can stay here for the rest of your life
I'll open windows when
you want to look out
At the transit of Venus 'cross the sun
As you're gathering dust
Ancient dragons and the cicadas come
The edges jagged as
Am 
you're coming undone
F 
C 
On the white soft feathers of your bed

Verse 2
Am 
G 
Well you know how hard I try
But I won't get nowhere
F 
G 
analyzing your life
Dm 
And it's people that you lose
F 
C 
When you become a recluse

Verse 3
C 
Turn away from us
Days are darker when the winter comes
Can't remove yourself from
Am 
what you have done
F 
C 
On the rack where your reputation lies
Do you want to exist
Between the lightning and the mental bliss
Or needing nothing and
Am 
with no  one to miss
F 
Like a stray dog pissing on a statue
C 

Verse 4
Am 
G 
Solitude is hard to find
And they're all too busy
F 
G 
organizing your life
Dm 
F 
But it's people that you lose
C 
When you become a recluse
Am 
G 
Well don't be so nervous now
F 
All I want is to be dancing
G 
round in your light
Dm 
With the colours that you choose
F 
C 
D 
When you become a recluse
C 
Ohh
F 
C 
D 
I make any excuse to stay home
F 
But I can't do that and I
G 
must come back
C 
D 
People that stay at home
C 
F 
Watching a game of thrones
C 
D 
And wondering what comes next
F 
Well you can't do that and
G 
you must come back

Verse 5

Pictures of geese fly they around

us and this leads to that

Take us everywhere and bring us back

Well I dreamt that Jesus had a gun

Verse 6
Am 
G 
Sure it's getting cold outside
And they're all to busy
F 
G 
organizing your life
Dm 
F 
But it's people that lose when you become a
C 
recluse
