[Eb] [Bb] [F]
[Gm] [Eb] [Bb] [F] So [Gm] I'm [Eb] waiting by a [Bb] river for [F] the blessed [Gm] rain, like [Eb] a holy [Bb] grail.
For [F] the fish are [Gm] king, [Eb] time is ticking [Bb] down, like [F] a [Gm] metronome.
[Eb] Rhythm for my [Bb] brain [F] and its ceaseless [Eb] scales.
I never [E] seem to play them to the beat [F] I hear,
though [Eb] my heart beat [Cm] in a beat that [F] beats so [Gm] near.
[Bb] [F] So [Gm] we had [Eb] a talk last [Bb] night about [F] the heavy [Gm] blow.
You [Eb] dealt in [Bb] fight, your back [F] against the [Gm] wall.
It [Eb] was a puzzle [Bb] piece, [F] important to that [Gm] [Eb] [Bb] fight,
to place [F] within that [Eb] hole.
I never [E] seem to put them in the gaps [F] I see,
[Eb] like a puzzle [Cm] with the pieces [F] lost beneath.
[Bb] So I'm changing who I [Cm] am, [F] cause what I am's not [Bb] good.
[Gm] And I know you love me [Cm] now, but [F] I don't see why you [Bb] should.
[Gm] And I don't see why you [Cm] should.
[F] No, I don't see why you [Bb] should.
[Gm] [Eb] [Bb]
[F] [Gm] [Eb]
[Bb] [F] So [Gm] I drift [Eb] into the [Bb] air, [F] like a moth to [Gm] a light [Eb]
[Bb] of fire.
Till [F] the cup is [Gm] shot, in [Eb] the last [Bb] song, in [F] the land of [Gm] waste.
My fear [Eb] is being [Bb] down, [F] on this lonely [Eb] town.
I never [E] seem to write them down [F] as good as him,
[Eb] like I've somewhere [Cm] lost a piece that [F] let me [Bb] in.
So I'm changing who I [Cm] am, [F] cause what I am's not [Bb] good.
And [Gm] I know you love me [Cm] now, but [F] I don't see why you [Bb] should.
