Lyrics:

Intro  Am    C (twice)

(C)           Am                  C
As you look into an invisible landscape

Dm7                            C
And the waves of time part behind your back

G
As your life crumbles and turns into fiction

Dm7                 C
And the end of it becomes a fact

Am                         C
The ghosts of children will run in your garden

Dm7                     C
And play with an imaginary ball

G
You will be released and pardoned

Dm7             C
Now there's nowhere left to fall

Dm7                             C   Dm7    C
Chorus    Good bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye

Dm7                    (add G)   C    Dm7    C
Now fly fly fly fly fly fly fly fly fly

Am                     C
A steam rises out of the water

Dm7                  C
And a mist hangs over the field

G
The tears of your wife and daughter

Dm7                    C
Have all but released their yield

Am                     C
The ghosts of lovers will walk toward you

Dm7                  C
And beckon you into their arms

G
And the mighty bells of chaos

Dm7                    C
Will no longer sound their alarms

Chorus repeat (plus way way way way way)

Dm7                     G
Shake off your carcass leave us in the dark

C                               C
That's us fumbling 'round like ants on the ground

Dm7                G
In palaces and hovels reading mystery novels

C                   C
But we never get the plot  Maybe you got it now

Dm7                    G
Shake that mortal coil leave us to toil

C                      C
Take off that weight take off that weight

Dm7                    G
Listen to the silence know the end of violence

C                  C
Is a clean slate  Is a clean slate

Chorus repeat
