[Intro 1]
[D][Bb][G][D][Bb][C][D][F][A]
[D]

[Verse 1]
A cold [Bb]and
wet Novem[G]ber [D]dawn
And there [Bb]are no barki[C]ng sparr[D]ows
Just [F]emptiness to dwell upon
[A]

[Verse 2]
[D]
I fell in[Bb]to a wint[G]er s[D]lide
And ended [Bb]up the kind of[C] kid who goes
down [D]chutes too narrow
Just [F]eking out my measly [A]pies

[Verse 3]
But [G]I learned f[D]ast how t[A]o keep
my head up [D]'cause [G]I
Know there [D]is this [F]side of [A]me [G]that
Wants to [D]grab the [A]yoke
from the pilot [D]and [G]just
Fly the [D]whole mess [F]into the sea
[A]

[Verse 4]
[D]
Another [Bb]slow train [G]to [D]the coast
Some brand new [Bb]gory art
from [C]way on [D]high
[F]I sink and then I swim all [A]night[D]

[Verse 5]
I watch the [Bb]ice melt o[G]n [D]the glass
While the [Bb]eloquent young
pil[C]grims [D]pass
And [F]leave behind their trail
Im[C]ploring us all not to [A]fail

[Verse 6]
[G]Of course I was [D]raised [A]to
gather [D]courage from [G]those
Lofty [D]tales so [F]tried and [A]true [G]and
If you're [D]able [A]I'd sug
[D]gest it 'cause [G]this
Modern [D]thought can get
the [F]best of you
[A]

[Verse 7]
[Bm]
This rather [D]simple epitaph [G]can save your [A]hide,
your [G]falling [A]mind[Bm]
Fate isn't [D]what we're up against,
there's [G]no [A]design, [G]no flaws [A]to find
There's [G]no design,
[A]no [G]flaws to find

[Interlude 1]
[A][D][Bb][G][D][Bb][C][D][F][C]
[A]

[Verse 8]
But [G]I learned f[D]ast how t[A]o keep
my head up [D]'cause [G]I
Know I [D]got this [F]side of [A]me [G]that
Wants to [D]grab [A]the yoke
from the pilot [D]and [G]just
Fly the [D]whole mess [F]into the sea
[A]
