G C D
Can you hear me now
C G
Lying in this bed
Em G Bm C
Embedded in this written story
G C D
Can you hear me now
C G
Calling from this bed
Em G Bm C
I'm spitting words but there's no meaning, no
D
(Now he's taking his time)
G C
He's got nothing to lose
D
(But the first thing he sees)
G C
Is the last thing he choose
D
(And when the moment arrived)
G C D
He just found he had nothing to say
C
That day
G C D
Can you hear me now
C G
Sky is turning red
Em G
The streets are all gone
Bm C
Am I dreaming, no

G C D
Can you hear me now
C G
Falling from this bed
Em G
Nudist that bears gifts
Bm C
But when will it show me
D
(Now she's taking her time)
G C
She's got nothing to lose
D
(But the first thing she sees)
G C
Is the last thing she'd choose
D
(And when the moment arrived)
G C D
She just found she had nothing to say
C
That day
Am G
He lies awake in his bed every night devising ways to conceal the strain
Am G
She never tells of her midnight fears or admits that she does the same
C D
They never meet, never touch, never speak and for one tired old refrain
G C D
Can you hear me now
C G
Lying in this bed
Em G Bm C
Embedded in this written story
G C D
Can you hear me now
C G
Calling from this bed
Em G
I'm spitting words
but there's no meaning
