Dancing On Broken Glass

Dsus4

[Verse 1]
     D                                  A
This place a palace of light drawn with shade
                          Bm     A      G
Of silence and pretence a token of our trade
     D                                  A/D
And here you and I lie wreathed in flames
                          Bm     A      G
All over a life lived by making up new games
N.C.
Of gazes and whispers


[Chorus]
D                          A/C#
I want you to know I still love you
      G                           Bm      A
Even though we've been dancing on broken glass
D                                 A
Parade all your memories for the moments we shared
      E    G   A
Never fade away

D                          A/C#
I want you to know I still love you
          G                 D  A
When I walk down the memory lane
          Bm                           A
Where the night swears its love to the stars
                      E        G
There will be no more tears today, hey, hey


[Verse 2]
   D                            A/D
We share a penchant for cyanide praise
                        Bm  A         G
Fashioned our armors of empathy's malaise
   D                                                 A/D
And all of that hurt, and all of those words that we said
                            Bm        A        G
You'd think we poisoned the ground on which we tread
N.C.
But the lining is silver


[Chorus]
D                          A/C#
I want you to know I still love you
            G                     Bm     A
Even though we've been dancing on broken glass
D                                 A
Parade all your memories for the moments we shared
      E    G   A
Never fade away

D                          A/C#
I want you to know I still love you
           G                D  A
When I walk down the memory lane
           Bm                          A
Where the night swears its love to the stars
                      E         G
There will be no more tears today, hey, hey


[Bridge]
    Em
The best of intentions will not see the road paved
    Edim
The end of illusions, who could ever be saved
    A
What's left behind in the storms that we've braved
    C                                          Dsus4
The troubles we find and the chances we waived

[Break]
Dsus4  D  Dsus2
Dsus4  D  Dsus2

D                               A
We're going where dreams really come true
       G                         D  A
And we won't be held back by our fears
     Bm
Come hell or high water
      A                           E         G
We'll trust there's a life for us here this way



[Chorus]
D                          A/C#
I want you to know I still love you
            G                     Bm     A
Even though we've been dancing on broken glass
D                                 A
Parade all your memories for the moments we shared
      E    G   A
Never fade away

D                          A/C#
I want you to know I still love you
            G               D  A
When I walk down the memory lane
           Bm                          A
Where the night swears its love to the stars
                      E     G
There will be no more tears today, hey, hey, hey, hey
