verse 1 (same rhythm as the main riff) 
From out the night sky 
We were made open 
That our reflection meets between two 
Below the dark cries secretly laughing 
The smile was passed but never on you 

E                   Fmaj7 
Come to me when the lights are out 
E                  Fmaj7 
Secrets left us in turn 
E                           Fmaj7 
Circling the desert where a man goes now 
E                  Fmaj7 
In a sand dance we move 

MAIN RIFF 

verse 2 
Upon a question answers revealed 
No given memory, wishes unsure 
A lesser meaning left among feelings 
Gave you a web left down on the ground

MAIN RIFF 

Bridge: 
Dm 
I could lie through 
See more from you 
   E 
We have to be 
What we have to want we have to see 
Things that we wish we'd be 
Dm 
Crash between you 
Learning from you 
   E 
We have to be, what we 
have to learn we have to see 
Things that we wish could be 

MAIN RIFF 2x 

verse 3 
Still in the night sky 
We were made open 
That our reflection meets between two 
Below the dark cries secret in passing 
A smile will last but never on you 

BRIDGE 
Dm 
I could lie through 
See it from you 
   E 
We have to be 
What we have to learn we have to see 
Things that we wish could be 
Dm 
Crash between you 
Learning from you 
   E 
We have to be, what we 
have to learn we have to see 
Things that we wish could be
