[D]
[D]
[A] [G]
[B]
[F#m] I'm [G] laying back on the sundial Where angels fall too [A] late to tell [G] the time
Yours [B] or mine Now [F#m] the [G] landscape gestures questions
[G] How does your body [C] climb?
Latitudes [B] beyond me
[D] Wavings, silence, science, [G] secrets The [A] wreckage and [G] the prize behind [Bm] your eyes
[A] You could [G] have [D] tasted vision Raised on [A] vacancy [C] and lies
An vertical [B] dancer
[Bm] Where you stand now
And where I will be [B] measured [F#m] Until we're far afield [D] of stations
Nations, [G]
civilizations [A] [D] underground [G]
[D] [B]
[F#m] So [D] now I know [G] the lay [D] of man
How living with the [A] law could come [C] apart
Cause if I care [B] enough [Bm]
I will break your [C] heart
Under the weight [B] of pleasure [Bm]
Until when we stand [C] alone
At the vertical [B] desert
[Bm]
[C]
I [E] come [G] back here sometimes Angels fall, [Bm] fireflies ascend
[G]
I'll be on the aching skyline
[E] Reckless [Bm] distances [C] erupt An [B] intoxication
Between the hard [C] and soft Of our [Bm] evaporations
Where we stand [C] aloft
At the vertical [Bm] desert In the curve [C] there
Of collapse and creation The balance of chaos [Bm] and gravity
[C] Liberation
[D] [C]
