The clouds that gathered turned (G major)

Verse 2
(G major)
Reading through poems that you saved
That make the gloomy hours make sense
(D major) Or do they lose their power (E minor)
With the (F major) yellowing (G major) of age
Verse 3
(C major) I saw you suffering
(G major) Through a foggy window
in the rain (Dsus4)
When you (D major) thought no one
was watching, (E minor) yeah
(C major) Going through your memories
(G major) Like so many prisons to es (D major) cape
(Dsus4) And (D major) become someone (E minor) else
With (F major) an other face
And an (C major) other name
No more (G major) suffering
Verse 4
(G major)
You sold the best of yourself out
On a chain of grey and white lies
(Dsus4) One syllable at a (D major) time
(E minor) You should have made them pay (F major)
A higher (G major) price
Verse 5
(C major) I saw you suffering
(G major) Through the cracked and dirty window pane (D major)
I was ashamed that I was (E minor) watching, yeah
(C major) Going through your imagination
(G major) Looking for a life you
could create (D major)
And become somebody (E minor) else, yeah
With (F major) an other face
With an (C major) other name
No more (Dsus4) suffer ing (D major)
Verse 6
(A minor) I wish that I could find a seed
And (C major) plant a tree that grows so high (G major)
So that I could climb
And harvest the ripe stars
(A minor) For you and I to drink
And (C major) spit the ashes from our mouths
And (E minor) put the grey back in the clouds
And send them packing with our bags
Of (D major) old regrets and sorrows
'Cause they don't do a thing
(A flatdim) but drag (D major) us down
(A flatdim) So (Dsus4) far (D major) down (G major)
The past is like a braided rope
Verse 7
Each moment tightly coiled inside
(C major) I saw you suffering
(G major) Through the yellow window
of a train (Dsus4)
With every (D major) body watching, (E minor) yeah
(C major) Too tired for imagining
(G major) That you could ever love some
body (Dsus4) else
From somewhere far (E minor) away
From (F major) an other time
And (C major) an other place
With (A minor) an other life
And (E minor) an other face
And (D major) another name (Dsus4) (D major)
And another name
No (G major) more suffering
