Hozier - Abstract (Psychopomp)

[Intro]
F Am C Em

[Verse 1]
F Am
Sometimes it returns, like rain that you slept through
C G
That washed off the world, the streets looking brand new
F Am
I will not be great, but I’m grateful to get through
C Em
The feeling came late, I’m still glad I met you

[Pre-Chorus]
F Am
The memory hurts but does me no harm
C G
Your hand in my pocket, to keep us both warm
F Am
The poor thing in the road, its eye still glistening
C Em
The cold wet of your nose, the earth from a distance

[Chorus]
F Am
See how it shines
C Em
See how it shines
F Am
See how it shines
C Em
See how it shines

F Am C Em
F Am C Em

[Verse 2]
F Am
Sometimes there’s a thought like you choose what you’re doing
C G
But it comes to naught when I look back through it
F Am
I remember the view, streetlights in the dark blue
C Em
The moment I knew I’d no choice but to love you

[Pre-Chorus]
F Am
The speed that you moved, the screech of the cars
C G
The creature still moving, that slowed in your arms
F Am
The fear in its eyes, gone out in an instant
C Em
Your tear caught the light, the earth from a distance

[Chorus]
F Am
See how it shines
C Em
See how it shines
F Am
See how it shines
C Em
See how it shines

F Am C Em
F Am C Em

[Bridge]
F
Darling, there’s a part of me
Fm
I’m afraid will always be
C E
Trapped within an abstract from a moment of my life
Dm
The weeds up through the concrete
G7
The traffic picking up speed
Em A
All my love and terror balanced there between those eyes

[Chorus]
Dm Fm
See how it shines
C
See how it shines
