Capo 4 (to be in key with original recording)
(Intro:) D - A - Em - D - A
D A
Well, 'All is well in order' is what you thought you heard them say
Em D A
and so you drifted off to see what's not in yourself
D A
Light is turning slowly will it lay out on the plains?
Em D
No more nights of what you wrote back then,
A G D A
no relief of no rain
D A
And so, singing songs of rivers tied to accidents within
Em D A
and telling people lies of lions, treasures, and kings
D A
Nothing's more revealing than the dancer and the doubt
Em D A G
waving to forget what's never gone, always there, never right
A D A
In all these riots of broken sounds
Em
Like the last voice you heard
A D A Em D A
then you drowned, oh lord
D A
You know, this is wind and walls and weathered leaves and tearing sails
Em D A
and minnows in your pockets when the rapid's on trails
D A
this is not the future but I sense it's right up there
Em D A G
oh, just another hour, another pass, another day anywhere
A D A
In all these riots of broken sounds
Em
And you sleep on the track
A D A Em D A
every night, oh lord
G
And we don't know if your treasure is safe
A D Bm
where will you be when they find you, son?
G
And you know they're always following me
A D Bm
so when I get there you trust me son, and just leave,
A A6 A7
I'll catch up
D A
This is where you're passionate of seasons and their strength
Em D A
and this is where you breathe and walk and know they will end
D A
Light is turning slowly to the hand upon your chest
Em D A G
so lay it on the plains where there is time, there is love, there is rest
A D A
From all these riots of broken sounds
Em
When you sleep on the track
A D A Em D A
every night, oh lord
(Break:) G - A - A6 - G - A - A6
G
And we don't know if your treasure is safe
A D Bm
where will you be when they find you, son?
G A
And you know they're always following me
D
I'll be the best when the silence comes.
