Infrared

F                        Am
  I came along an empty planet
C                            G
  Where I was born beside a lake
F                                   Am
  The days were long, and there was nothing in my eye
      G
Not a tear, not a bird, not a snake

F                                 Am
  And Phillip claimed I must have missed him
C                                 G
  At the point of faith and misbelief
F                            Am
  The red man died without a spear there at his side
              G
I never learned the shape of a maple leaf

[Chorus]
   F
In infrared is there anyone talking?
   Am
In infrared is there anyone hocking
  C                                           G
A sign of life, something bright throwing heat?
   F
In infrared in a little black box
     Am
They won’t forget through the ticks, and the tocks
     C                                           G
In a little wood chest, a little heart with a beat

A little heart with a beat

[Interlude]
F    Am     C     G

[Verse 2]
F                      Am
  She awoke the vast reflection
C                            G
  The way we hold, let go, repeat
F                        Am
  To synthesize a joy in someone’s afterlife
            G
  I never knew, I never know, I never tried

[Repeat Chorus]

[Outro]
F
  A little heart with a beat
Am
  A little heart with a beat
C
  A little heart with a beat
G
  A little heart with a beat
