[Verse]
          E             B
The whole place is dark ■
C# E                               B   
■  Every light on this side of the town
C# E               B        
■  Suddenly it all went down
C#           E               B  C#     E                  B  
■  Now we'll all be brothers of ■  the fossil fire of the sun

Someone must have set them up ■


[Chorus]
C#             E                        B   
Now they'll be working in the cold grey rock
C#             E                  B         
Now they'll be working in the hot mill steam
C#                E              B       
■  Now they'll be working in the concrete
C#        E              B        C# 
■  In the sirens and the silences now
        E            B     
All the great set up hearts
       C#   E          B   
All at once ■ start to beat

[Verse]
C#    E                              B    
After tonight if you don't want this to be
C#   E                 B   
■  A secret out of the past
       C#           E           B            
I will resurrect it I'll have a good go at it

I'll streak his blood across my beak
C# C#m7 E                    B     C#
■  Dust my feathers with his ashes ■ 
         E                    B      
Feel his ghost breathing down my back


[Chorus]
       C#      E               B  
I will try and know whatever I try
          C#   E       B      
I will be gone but not forever
       C#  E                   B  
I will try and know whatever I try
       C# E                   
I will be gone but not forever

B   C# E                   B  C#       E               B  
The ■  real truth about it is ■  we're all supposed to try
C#             E                B                        
There ain't no end to the sands I've been trying to cross
    C# E                   B          C# E                B  
The ■  real truth about it is my kind of life's no better off
                C#  C#m7 E       B   
If it's got the map or   if it's lost

We will try and know whatever we will try

We will be gone but not forever

■  The real truth about it is there ain't no end to the desert I'll cross

I've really known it all along
C#                                B                E
