Wind And Walls

Intro: D  A  Em  D  A

       D                                  A
Well, 'All is well in order' is what you thought you heard them say
    Em                               D          A
and so you drifted off to see what's not in yourself
D                               A
Light is turning slowly will it lay out on the plains?
Em                                    D
No more nights of what you wrote back then,
     A       G        D  A
no relief of no rain

        D                               A
And so, singing songs of rivers tied to accidents within
    Em                            D              A
and telling people lies of lions, treasures, and kings
D                                 A
Nothing's more revealing than the dancer and the doubt
Em                            D            A            G
waving to forget what's never gone, always there, never right

A                       D             A
  In all these riots of broken sounds
                        Em
Like the last voice you heard
         A           D     A   Em   D   A
then you drowned, oh lord

          D                                    A
You know, this is wind and walls and weathered leaves and tearing sails
    Em                               D          A
and minnows in your pockets when the rapid's on trails
D                            A
this is not the future but I sense it's right up there
    Em                         D             A      G
oh, just another hour, another pass, another day anywhere

A                        D            A
  In all these riots of broken sounds
                     Em
And you sleep on the track
      A         D    A   Em   D   A
every night, oh lord


G
And we don't know if your treasure is safe
               A            D              Bm
where will you be when they find you, son?
        G
And you know they're always following me
          A             D                      Bm
so when I get there you trust me son, and just leave,
           A     A6  A7
I'll catch up

D                                  A
This is where you're passionate of seasons and their strength
    Em                                     D              A
and this is where you breathe and walk and know they will end
D                              A
Light is turning slowly to the hand upon your chest
   Em                                  D              A              G
so lay it on the plains where there is time, there is love, there is rest

A                         D              A
  From all these riots of broken sounds
Em
When you sleep on the track
      A         D     A   Em   D   A
every night, oh lord

( G A A6  G A A6 )

       G
And we don't know if your treasure is safe
               A            D              Bm
where will you be when they find you, son?
        G                             A
And you know they're always following me
                          D
I'll be the best when the silence comes.
