A Thousand Years Away

Intro:  G C G C

G
   Our star is cold and cruel

We don't deserve a sun
      C                                Em
Our minds cathedral doors and boarded shut

G
   Where once were miracles

The barren last-ditch now
     C                               Em
How better to have been more like a cow

                       C
To all the saints and scientists
                     G    D
With fire and comet haze
                C
I'm happy to accept my fate
                  G
A thousand years away


A thousand years away
                   C
A thousand years away

G
   The void of space is crowded

With populations gone
    C                                Em
To never know the past would be too soon

C
To all the saints and scientists
                     G    D
With fire and comet haze
                C
I'm happy to accept my fate
                  G
A thousand years away


A thousand years away
                      C
A thousand years away
G
   A thousand years away
                      C
A thousand years away

G
   Call this place what you want

Call it a dying sun
    C                                 Em
We left a trail of pissed-off better ones

C
To all the saints and scientists
                     G    D
With fire and comet haze
                C
I'm happy to accept my fate
                  G
A thousand years away
