Tonight I Have No Words For You

Em                 C
Tonight I have no words for you
Em                 C
Made a promise to say so much
Em                 C
Oh I can only steal from you
Em                 C
What already belongs to us
Em                 C
I would like to sing a firestorm
Em                 C
And not some rich and soothing well
Bb                         G
Well all such lines are forbidden now
Em               C
And it's you I cannot touch
Bm                      Em
Well you know that it ain't true
Bm                       Em
I don't care 'bout me and you
Bm            D     Em
See the sky is so deep
     D                Em
And I dare not go to sleep
Em                      C
I would like to come unmasked for you
Em             C
I wanna come without a lie
Em                    C
It was this voice and pen I used
Em             C
To make myself a man
Em                      C
Now if you could try and reach inside
Em                   C
And tear apart this sad cocoon
Em                      C
Oh I will again be that moon for you
Em               C
And we too will be like sand
Bm                           Em
Well you know that it ain't true

Bm                         Em
I don't care 'bout me and you
Bm              Em
See the sky is so deep
D                                        Em
And I dare not, dare not, well go to sleep you know
                       Am
You know it just might change
C                                 Em
You don't wear these checkers and chains
G                    Am
You know it won't come on
C                               Em
You know the government's coming along
D                       Am
You know it just might change
C                     Em                    G                D
You don't wear these checkers and chains, checkers and chains
A      Am   Bm C
Well alright
Em                C
Now I ain't being cold
Gm            Em            C
You know it's only that just now
Em                C          G
Seems obvious the hands that fell
Em                      G        C    Em
Are the hands that will soon knock down
G                        C
Well tonight I see the skyline

          Em                   C
As the skyline lights a mountain range
Em                   C
Tomorrow night it just might have changed
Em             G C
The other way around
B   Bm                     Em
Well you know that it ain't true
B                        Em
I don't care 'bout me and you
Bm                Em
See the sky is so deep
           D                                     Em
And I dare not, dare not, well go to sleep you know
Em    D                A     Am
You know it just might change
C                                  Em
You don't wear these checkers and chains
                     D                 A        Am
You know it won't come on
C                  Em            G
You know the government's coming along
Am         C
Well You know
