[Verse 1]
Burn bright [C]through
the night [D]two pockets lead [C]the way
Two doors to go between [D]the
wall was raised [C]today
Two doors remain before [D]your
others and your own
[C]Keep these books well stocked away
[D]an d take your happy home

[Verse 2]
My car[G]penter's out and running
about talking to [D]the street
My pock[G]ets are out and
running about
Barking in the street to tell [D]what

[Verse 3]
I have hidden there
[C]
Burn bright through the night,
two [D]pockets lead [C]the way
Two doors to go between [D]the
wall was raised today
[C]Raise the walls and shout its flaws,
a car[D]penter should rest
So that [C]when you tire of one side
[D]the other serves you best

[Verse 4]
My car[G]penter's out and running about,
talking to the [D]street
My [G]pockets are out and
running about
Barking in the street to tell
[D]what I have hidden there

[Verse 5]
[D]
The [F]hills ringing [Bb]hear
the words in [C]time
Listen to the holler,
[D]lis[F]ten to my walls within my [C]tongue
Can't you see you [D]made my ears go tin?
The air quicken tension building
inference suddenly
Life [C]and how to live it

[Verse 6]
[C]Raise the walls and shout its flaws,
a [D]carpenter should rest
So that [C]when you tire of one side
[D]the other serves you best
[C]Read about the wisdom lost,
a [D]knock, a knock, a knock
[C]A secret knock one hammer's
locked [D]the other wisdom lost

[Verse 7]
My car[G]penter's out and running about,
talking to the [D]street
My pock[G]ets are out and

Barking in the street to tell
[D]what I have hidden there
My car[G]penter's out and
running about
Barking in the, listen to the [D]holler
My [G]pockets are out and running about
Barking in the street to tell [D]what I
have hidden there
