Intro:
E B A E
E B
If you break these moth wing feelings
A
Powdery dust on your fingers
E
Well no we're not praying we're kneeling.
B
Hard enough just to say you believe them
A
Well how the heck'dya think you could beat them
E
At the same time that you're trying to be them
B
Hard enough just to say you don't need it when they
A
Serve it up well you will still eat it
E
Well satellite and satellite skin
E B
Just to knock just to say you don't visit
A
Well, when everybody's willing to listen
E
Oh satellite, satellite skin
B
You can say what you want you're forgiven
A
Well happy fucking congratulations
E
Everyone, everyone wins
B
Just like being my own solar system
A
Doing good things but then totally eclipse them
Oh what's the use, oh what the hell

E B
If you break these moth wing feelings
A
Butterfly knives in the ceiling
E
Well everyone, everyone's waiting
B
Detachments get praised and completed
A
You can say what you want and not mean it
E
When no one really seems to be waiting
B
If you sweep up this mess I've created
A
Nothing's left to show I existed
E
Oh satellite, satellite skin
Bridge:
(no chord) A
Asking for a question
B C# A B
Was it easier said than was actually done?
C# A
Do you even believe that
B C# A
Do you even believe that there's a race to be won?

E B
If you break these moth wing feelings
A
I have seen it all become satellite skin
E
Orbiting some eyes
E B
A knack to not thats not their opinions
A E
Get stacked in all those usual avoided spots
E B
Just to tell you how I could not have seen
A
Through to the gist of those unhappy
E
Happy accidents
Enjoy! Dave K
