Intro : Em, C (repeatedly)
Em
Did a line off your chest and it made me feel better
C D
When we were losing physicality and untethering ourselves
Em
The fragile alpine freshness after sickness beckons
C
Where a song can naturally unfurl
D
Without the pain of hitting the shelves
C D Em
Oh, oh, oh oh
Leave a dusty trace of everything you do in your wake
C D Em
Oh, oh, oh oh
D C
A greying map of your activities and all of your mistakes
D
Oh, oh
Em D C
Don't leave your troubled friend behind, oh oh oh oh
D
Oh, oh
C D Em
I'll know what to do when I've learned all my lines

Tell me I'm wrong again, tell me it's wrong to skirt around reality,
C D
I'll never learn unless it's more uncomfortable for me not to feel
C D Em
Oh, oh, oh oh
Leave a dusty trace of everything you do in your wake

Oh, oh, oh oh

A greying map of your activities and all of your mistakes

Em
Now I'm lying on your chest and it makes me feel better
C D
Now I've lost all my integrity these problems right themselves
Em
And if a frenzy kicks about amidst the susurrus
C D C
A lonely editorial can never hurt and only time will tell

Oh, oh, oh oh
C D C
Oh, oh, oh oh
