capo 4
standard tuning
the intro is the a chord over and over with an E mixed in
A E
i want to call requests through heating – vents ,
D A
and hear them answered with a whispered , “no . ”
A E
to crack the code of muscle , slacken , tense .
D A
let every second step in boots on snow
A E
complete your name with accents i can’t place ,
D A
that stumble where the syllables combine .
A E
take depositions from a stranger’s face .
D A
paint every insignificance a sign .
D E
so tell me nothing matters , less or more .
A D
say , “whatever we think actions are ,
D E
we’ll never know what anything was for . ”
A D
if “near is just as far away as far , ”
A E
and i’m permitted one act i can save ,
D A
i choose to sit here next to you and wave .
the outro is just these four chords over again .
A E D A
