Hợp Âm Chuẩn
Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]Bsus2[/ch
I'm traveling in some vehicle
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I'm sitting in some cafe
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
A defector from the petty wars
ch]B[/ch
That shell shocked love away
ch]Bsus2[/ch
There's comfort in melancholy
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
When there's no need to explain
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
It's just as natural as the weather
ch]B[/ch
In this moody sky today
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
In our possessive coupling
ch]B[/ch
So much could not be expressed
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
So now I am returning to myself
ch]F#7[/ch
These things that you and I suppressed
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I see something of myself in everyone
ch]B[/ch
Just at this moment of the world
ch]F#7sus4[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch
As snow gathers like bolts of lace
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Waltzing on a ballroom girl
Interlude
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]Bsus2[/ch
You know it never has been easy
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Whether you do or you do not resign
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Whether you travel the breadth of extremities
ch]B[/ch
Or stick to some straighter line
ch]Bsus2[/ch
Now here's a man and a woman sitting on a rock
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
They're either going to thaw out or freeze
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Listen, strains of Benny Goodman
ch]B[/ch
Coming through' the snow and the pinewood trees
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I'm porous with travel fever
ch]B[/ch
But you know I'm so glad to be on my own
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Still somehow the slightest touch of a stranger
ch]F#7[/ch
Can set up trembling in my bones
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I know, no one's going to show me everything
ch]B[/ch
We all come and go unknown
ch]F#7sus4[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch
Each so deep and superficial
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Between the forceps and the stone
Interlude
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]Bsus2[/ch
Well, I looked at the granite markers
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Those tributes to finality, to eternity
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And then I looked at myself here
ch]B[/ch
Chicken scratching for my immortality
ch]Bsus2[/ch
In the church, they light the candles
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And the wax rolls down like tears
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
There is the hope and the hopelessness
ch]B[/ch
I've witnessed thirty years
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
We're only particles of change I know, I know
ch]B[/ch
Orbiting around the sun
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But how can I have that point of view
ch]F#7[/ch
When I'm always bound and tied to someone
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
White flags of winter chimneys
ch]B[/ch
Wave truce against the moon
ch]F#7sus4[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch
In the mirrors of a modern bank
ch]E9[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
From the window of a hotel room
Interlude
Outro
ch]Bsus2[/ch
I'm traveling in some vehicle
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I'm sitting in some cafe
ch]E7sus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
A defector from the petty wars
ch]B[/ch
Until love sucks me back that way
ch]C#m7[/ch] [ch]D6[/ch
(repeat to fade)
