[Intro]
Cm…….
[Verse 1]
CmI used to see the future and now I see nothin’
They cut out my eyes and sent me home packing
F FmTo pace around the kitchen for scraps of inspiration
CmCrying like Cassandra, I
GUsed to tell the future, but they cut out my tongue
F FmAnd left me doing laundry to thinkin’ what I’ve done
Cm Am G FIt wasn’t me, it was the song
[Verse 2]
CmI used to move into the future, bring it all back
Let it bleed through my fingers, a treasure in my hands
Not [?] when there’s no one about
‘Cause they put crosses on the doors to try and keep me out
Cm BbWith gard?ns of the grove
Am G#And I run in the middl? of the road (Ooh)
[Chorus]
Cm EbWell, can you see me? I cannot see you
G#Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
Eb G#In this blindness I’m condemned to
Cm EbWell, can you hear me? I cannot hear you
G#Every song I thought I knew, I’ve been deafened to
Eb G CmAnd there’s no one left to sing to
[Verse 3]
CmAll the gods have been domesticated
And Heaven is now overrated
And the churches, they all closed their doors
But you can take your complaints straight to the Lord
CmI try to still look where they wander on the work
BbAs the roses bloom
Am G# GAnd the riot plants, they play me and you….
[Chorus]
Cm EbWell, can you see me? I cannot see you
G#Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
Eb G#In this blindness I’m condemned to
Cm EbWell, can you hear me? I cannot hear you
G#Every song I thought I knew, I’ve been deafened to
Eb G CmAnd there’s no one left to sing to..
[Bridge]
CmOoh
BbOoh
Am G# GOoh, oh…
CmOoh, ooh, ooh (Take me back)
BbOoh, ooh, ooh (Oh, the drunken gods oversee me)
Am G# GOoh, ooh, ooh (I must be their favourite daughter)..
[Chorus]
Cm EbWell, can you see me? I cannot see you
G#Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
Cm EbAnd if I run fast and back, could I break apart
G# Eb GAs empires tumble and cathedrals flatten in my heart?…
