guitar chords lyrics
So, for as many times as I've listened to this, and how much I love it, these chords
seem pretty accurate, but if you notice anything wrong, let me know.

D
She got down on hands and knees,
Asus G
One ear against the ground,
D
Holding her breath to hear something,
Asus G
But the dirt made not a sound tonight
D Asus G
Echoes of songs still lurk on distant foreign shores,
D Asus G
Where we danced just to please the gods that only ask for more,
Bm
So it goes
A G
But still we give ourselves to this
G
We can't spend our lives waiting to live
D
On cold nights
Asus
In a prayer for dawn
Bm
But daylight
G
Isn't what she wants
D
The concrete
Asus
Calls my name again
Bm
I'm falling
G
Through the cracks I slip
D
The postcard says wish you were here
Asus G
But I'd rather I was there,
D Asus G
Holding on to the simple things before they disappear,
Bm
That's what I meant
A G
But that was then, and this is now
G
I'll make it up to you somehow
D
On cold nights
Asus
In a prayer for dawn
Bm
But daylight
G
Isn't what she wants
D
The concrete
Asus
Calls my name again
Bm
I'm falling
G
Through the cracks I slip
Bm A
A destination, a fading smile.
D G
Another station, another mile.
Bm A
Another day gone, I swore that I will.
D
Be there before dawn.
G
So be there, I will.
D
She got down on hands and knees,
Asus G
One ear against the ground,
D
Holding her breath to hear something,
Asus G
Anything at all
G
The dirt whispered, "Child, I'm coming home"
D
On cold nights
Asus
In a prayer for dawn
Bm
But daylight
G
Isn't what she wants
D
The concrete
Asus
Calls my name again
Bm
I'm falling
G
Through the cracks I slip
