[G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]This cocoon,
[A]caught [D]in Vesuvi[G]us' shadow[D][G]
[D]Only [G]the ashes remain
[D]And[A] I [D]wai[G]ted there for[D] you[G]
Why couldn't [D]you?[A][D][G]
[D]Here we lie [A]wait[D]ing [A]for
[D]something [A]to [D]startle[G]
To shake us from gravity's [D]pull
And [G]so the sleep[D]ing hours are [G]through
What can we do?
[D][A][D][G]

[Verse 2]
The tain[Bm]ted election, the [G]low dirty war,
[Em]it happened before you came [E]to
[Em]But this[Bm] is solution, and this[G] is amends
The [Em]joke always tends to come [E]true[Em]
But [C]there on your windowsill [Am]over
the unmoving [E]platoon
[C]Written in paperback,
[Am]the key to the q[A]uart[E]erback's room
[Em]Under wani[G]ng moon

[Verse 3]
This [F#m]quiet [D]serves [F]only [Em]to hide you
[G]Provide you
[Gm]What I knew: it'd come [G]back

[Interlude 1]
to you
[D][A][D][G][D][G][D][A][D]
[G]

[Verse 4]
[D]Take this palm,
[A]fol[D]low the lines here are [G]written[D][Em]
[G]And script out[Bm] the rest of[G]
[D]your [A]lif[D]e[A][D]
[G]And feel your [D]fingers falling [G]slack
and [Bm]all fold[G]ing [D]back
[A][D][G]

[Verse 5]
The [Bm]sorry conclusion, [G]the hole in the sky
Com[Em]mand what is [E]tried, what is true
But [Bm]without solution, with [G]feet on the ground
It [Em]won't make a sound
'til you're [E]through
[Em]So loose[C]n your shoulder blades
[Am]'Tis is your hour to make [A]due[E]
Because [C]there on the timberline
[Am]Deep cold November [A]shines [E]through
[Em]Soft and a[G]bsolute
