INTRO:
E, E7sus4, Aadd9, G
E, E7sus4, Aadd9, Asus
VERSE 1:
E E7sus4 Aadd9 G
As someone sets light to the first fire of Autumn
E E7sus4 Aadd9 Asus
We settle down to cut ourselves apart.
E E7sus4 Aadd9 G
Cough and twitch from the news on your face
E E7sus4 Aadd9 Asus
And some foreign candle burning in your eyes
POST-VERSE 1/PRE-VERSE 2:
E, E7sus4, Aadd9, G
E, E7sus4, Aadd9, Asus
VERSE 2:
E E7sus4 Aadd9 G
Held to the past, too aware of the pending
E E7sus4 Aadd9 Asus
Chill as the dawn breaks and finds us up for sale
E E7sus4 Aadd9 G
Enter the fog another low road descending
E E7sus4 Aadd9 Asus
Away from the cold lust, your house and summertime
Aadd9
CHORUS:
A Em A
Blind to the last cursed affair
Em A
Pistols and countless eyes
Em A
A trail of white blood betrays
C D
The reckless route your craft is running
A Em A
Feed till the sun turns into wood
Em A
Dousing an ancient torch
Em
Loiter the whole day through
C D A
And lose yourself in lines dissecting love
POST-CHORUS/PRE-VERSE:
E, E7sus4, Aadd9, G
E, E7sus4, Aadd9, Asus
VERSE 3:
E E7sus4 Aadd9 G
Your name on my cast and my notes on your stay
E E7sus4 Aadd9 Asus
Offer me little but doting on a crime
E E7sus4 Aadd9 G
We've turned every stone and for all our inventions
E E7sus4 Aadd9 Asus
In matters of love lost, we've no recourse at all
Aadd9
CHORUS:
A Em A
Blind to the last cursed affair
Em A
Pistols and countless eyes
Em A
A trail of white blood betrays
C D
The reckless route your craft is running
A Em A
Feed till the sun turns into wood
Em A
Dousing an ancient torch
Em
Loiter the whole day through and
C D
Lose yourself in lines dissecting,

Lose yourself in lines dissecting, lose yourself in lines dissecting
