(finger-picking/arpeggio in 4/4 time signature)
D   C   G   G   

D    C    G   G
Show me a sign
Troubles in mind
Spell me your life
And tell me a lie
        F F    C            G      
And the bodies float on the river
N/C    F F    C    G (strum once)  
To the oceans of demi--------------se

(finger picking/arpeggio continues)
D   C   G   G   

D    C       G   G
Made me your slave
To the secrets of your silence
But you told to me stay
And you told me goodbye

F           C            G
Well bodies float on the river
F       C         G (strum once)
To the oceans of demise

(solo)
D   C   G   G    (x4)
F   C   G   G    (x4)        

(keyboard only)
Gm              Dm
In light of all things to come
A#m       Dm
Why to despair?
Gm               Dm
Because when you have no one
A#m          Am  A  
No one would care
      E
Don’t care

(arpeggio 3 strings for each chord below)
Am    E    Dm    Am    (x2)

Dm       Am       (x4)

(strum once)
Gm            Dm
Nothings will come undone
A#m               Dm
There’s nothing to share
Gm      Dm
Waiting for no one
A#m          Am  A  
No one is there
   E
To care

(freaked-out interlude)


C     B
Can’t see
C     B
Can’t feel
C   B
You run
C B
I long
C B
I wait
C B
Because
C     B
Takes you
C B
Away

I can see can feel you run I long I wait to come to you…
B
Wait through the embers of summer
G   F#       E  D
Something misdone
B
Through the passage of fire, yeah
G F#    E    D  B
Fire beyond the sight
B
Comes a time when the river of life
Winter comes and we sacrifice
Our life
