A Litany Heart Swells

C#m E                                A C#m                   C#m E
       A stack of words in my throat,      a trail of slime
                          E A                            C#m E
Forehead on fruit machine,    three bells will not chime
                              A C#m                      C#m E
For lovers who line the beach       whom moon entertains
                           E A                   B
Theirs always waxing while    our crescent wanes


[Chorus]
      C#m           F#m        A          E      Abm
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back


[Verse 2]
C#m E                         A C#m                    C#m E
      Outside a chicken shop,       a ceiling of stars
                       E A                       B
A nostril of Diet Coke,    I'm back in your arms


[Chorus]
      C#m           F#m        A          E      Abm
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back


[Verse 3]
C#m E                       A C#m                         C#m E
      Now I feel the misery       in your breast and mine
                          E A                    B
Is one and the same and I     feel close to fine


[Chorus]
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back
      C#m           F#m          A              E
Your hand is on the pen but you can't sign the pact
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back


[Bridge]
A      C#m    C#m  E
Heart swells, ahh-ah
Abm     A     B
Heart swells, ah


[Chorus]
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back
      C#m           F#m          A              E
Your hand is on the pen but you can't sign the pact
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back
      C#m           F#m          A              E
Your hand is on the pen but you can't sign the pact
      C#m           F#m        A          E
I'm shouting out a litany, an echo calls back
