Shimmering Silver
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 4th fret
Key: G#m
[Verse]
Em Am C G
I was waiting for a moment alone
Em Am C G
Sat beside you when you got home
Em Am C G
I took a breath and you took out your phone
Em Am D
So I just did the same
Em C D
I just did the same
[Refrain]
C G D
I tried to be the simple answer
C G D C
I tried to be the ground for you to stand
Em Am D
I’m trying to know what’s out of my hands
Em Am C G
Em Am C G
[Verse]
Em Am C G
Change the song to whatever you like
Em Am C G
I’m too tired to change your mind, so
Em Am C G
Turn it up if you’re feeling inclined
Em Am D
To wander to the sound
Em C D
Wander to the sound
[Chorus]
G Em
The distant rustle of a woman undressing
C D G Em
Who could’ve kept you but kept you guessing
C D G Em
Another sun that didn’t say it was setting
C Am D
When it called you outside
Em Am C G (x3)
Am A
[Verse]
Em Am C G
Any loving and helpless tune
Em Am C G
Will be old before it’s halfway through
Em Am C G
And any light I leave on for you
Em Am D
Will be dim next to the moon
Em C D
Who am I next to the moon?
[Chorus]
G Em
‘Cause I swear I caught you stealing glances at shadows
C D G Em
Drifting off on the back of a half note
C D G Em
I’ll never know what it was that you had so
C Am D D7
Why would I try
[Chorus]
G Em
But I can just see it through your memory’s filter
C D G Em
Singing back, all in shimmering silver
C D G Em
Like there is nothing alive that could fill your
C Am D
Heart with such light
[Bridge]
G Em
If I could only make you talk in your sleep then (I tried to be the simple answer)
C D G Em
Maybe I’d know the ocean you’re keeping (I tried to be the ground for you to stand)
C D G Em C Am Asus2 C D
You never look me in the eye when you’re dreaming (I'm dying to hold what's out of my...)
[Verse]
Em Am C G
In the arguments I write for us
Em Am C G
About the things I know we’ll never bring up
Em Am C
I always ask if I can only be
G Em Am D
What you want when I am gone
Em C D
Will I haunt you when I’m gone?
