      Bm        Bm       Bm          Bm
Cos i know that time has numbered my days
         Bm  Bm        G    G         D    G    D    G    D    G    D    G
And I'll go along with everything you say
         Bm        Bm       Bm         Bm
But I'll ride home laughing Look at me now
            Bm          Bm
Through the walls of my town
          G    G    D    G    D    G    D    G    D    G
they come crumbling down
 
 
       Bm            Bm         Bm     Bm
And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons
      Bm        Bm     G      G        D    G    D    G    D    G    D    G
And I know that coices colour all I've done
         Bm         Bm         Bm         Bm
But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son
        Bm    Bm           Bm     Bm       D    G    D    G    D    G    D    G
I ain't never lived a year better spent in Love
 
 
         Bm      A         D       G
Cos I'll know my weakness, know my voice
    Bm      A       D         G      A
And I'll believe in grace and choice
      Bm      A       D        G
And I know perhaps my heart is fast
    Bm      A        D     G     A
But I'll be born without a mask

         Bm        Bm          Bm           Bm
Like the city that nurtured my greed and my Pride
  Bm         Bm   G G      D    G    D    G    D    G    D    G
I stretch my arms into the sky

The come crumbling down
 
 
        Bm            Bm
You ask where will we stand 
       Bm              Bm
in the winds that will have
   Bm     Bm       G      G      D    G    D    G    D    G    D    G
as all we see will slip into the cloud
        Bm             Bm           Bm             Bm
So come down from your mountain and stand where we been
    Bm       Bm        G            G   D    G    D    G    D    G    D    G
You know our breath is weak and our body thin
 
 
D        G              D
Press my nose up to the glass
            D
around your heart
D          G           G      G        D
I shoul've known I was weaker from the start
D                 G                A       G      Bm
You'll build your walls and I will play my bloody part

And I'll believe in grace and choice
      Bm      A       D        G
And I know perhaps my heart is fast
    Bm      A        D     G     A
But I'll be born without a mask
