Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]I kn[Bsus4]ow you've[Em]
[D]said it just to cool me,
but [Em]my senseless senses,
oh, how [D]they fool [Em]me.
I'm drowning in [Bm]pavement,
every step more certain,
I'm walk[D]ing home to you.
[Am]But if we're all b[D]lind can we deduce

[Verse 2]
our blindness?
Would[Em]n't it be [D]a certain
kind of kind[Em]ness,
[D]to lea[Em]ve us oblivious to the madness
[B]of kno[Em]wing all the[Bb] truth?[D]
[Bm]Why [Em]don't you stay a[D] little

[Verse 3]
[Bb]while?
[G]The [Em]world is only [G]catching [D]fire.
[Em]Pro spects have never been so dire,
yet the new [G]light
will bring hori[D]zon to [G]our feet.[Dsus4]

[Verse 4]
[D]Millions of light years [Em]into my own
I'm locked in a narrow capsule of a bone
and [A]with two radars [Em]in the
front I see a tiny dot of [G]you
[D]shining [Bb]from afar.
[D]

[Verse 5]
My radars strain, adjusting [G]lenses,
The [Em]hope is flooding all my senses
[G]and just to [Em]glimpse the [G]form of you
I'd [Em]give up my pretenses
[D]of knowing what we are.

[Verse 6]
[G]Why don't you [Em]stay a [G]little [D#]while?[D]
[Em]The world is going out in [D#]style,[Em]
[D]but there [Em]must be yet another
call
before the new [G]light,[Em]
[G]when the ho[Cm]rizon [D]melts us all.
Darling, sometimes it [F#m]gets so

[Verse 7]
dull,
[D]listening [G]to echoes [Em]in my [G]skull,
[Em]come and be you,
come be the new,
come be the [G]element[D][D]
I couldn't possibly invent.
