Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I k[A]now exactly wher[Em]e I was when I
[D]First saw you the way I see [C]you now, through these eyes,
waiting [G]to [A]retry

[Verse 2]
Those pristine days I [Em]recall so fondly
[D]So few are trials when a [C]life isn't lonely,
and now if [G]only
[A]I'd never felt it,

[Verse 3]
[Em]I'd never heard it
[D]I know I loved you, did I e[C]ven deserve it,
when you re[G]turned it?

[Verse 4]
[A]There's no suspicion,
[Em]no hesitation
[D]Believing through the eyes of [A]sore,

[Verse 5]
adoration
[G]Witness [Em]and know, [G]fracture [Em]and hurt
[G]Eyes in [D]the fire, [G]blink unrehearsed
[C]Shi[G]eld lik[A]e a house,
[G]closing its door[Em]s
[G]Curved in [D]the dark,
[G]rinses [C]of yours
[Em]

[Verse 6]
[A]Ashtray is crowded, [Em]bottle is empty
[D]No music plays and nothing [C]moves without drifting,
into a [G]memory

[Verse 7]
[A]Busy apartment, [Em]no room for grieving
[D]Sink full of dishes and no [C]trouble believing,
that you are [G]leaving
[A]Mid-sentence tremors,

[Verse 8]
tremors,
[Em]mind at its weakest
[D]One way of shaking off the [A]thoughts
that it sleeps with
[G]Witness and know,

[Verse 9]
[Em]frac[G]ture and hurt
[Em]Eyes in th[G]e fire[D], blin[G]k unrehearsed
[C]Shi[G]eld lik[A]e a house,
[G]closing its door[Em]s
[G]Curved in [D]the dark,
[G]rinses of yours

[D][C][A]

[Verse 10]
In walks [Em]the darkness,
I pitch without you
[D]Asks me do I realize what I'd [C]done and who I'd done to,
indeed I [G]do know?

[Verse 11]
[A]It never leaves me, just [Em]visits less often
[D]It isn't gone and I won't [C]feel its grip soften,
without a [G]coffin
[A]Breathing beside

[Verse 12]
me,
[Em]feeling its warmness
[D]Phantom affection gives a [A]hu man,
performance
[G]Witness and know,

[Verse 13]
[Em]fracture[G] and hurt[Em]
[G]Eyes in the fir[D]e, blink unr[G]ehea[C]rsed
Shield [G]like a [A]house, [G]closing its [Em]doors
Curved [G]in the [D]dark, [G]rinses of [C]yours[G]
