Intro: Em

Verse 1:
Em
Squints out of his window, he don't wanna see.
Em
Venetian blind man, no one else to be.
Em
Talleyrand forces come down from high ground.
Em
Looks up at high horses. Well, we're safe for now. And he says:

Pre-Chorus:
Am                           Em
Oh, woah-woah! It's only an omen.
Am                           B7    C  Em
Oh, woah-woah! Stay in the moment.

Chorus:
G                   Em                G
Private walls close in and cup their ears now.
Em                   E                 Am
Trust us, we've got ways to make them talk.
           F        B7
Well I've read the writing.
C                  Em
How do these things lock?

Verse 2:
Em
String on his finger, a tourniquet ring.
Em
Venetian blind man, memory loaded on springs.
Em
Forward's behind him in the future that sneaks up.
Em
Keepers become finders. What's worth weeping over's worth taking.

Pre-Chorus:
Am                     Em
Oh, woah-woah! Sky is falling.
Am                          B7        C  Em
Oh, woah-woah! Catch, or it all ends.

Bridge:
 G                    Em                  G
Lord knows I've said awful things 'round this house.
     Em                E                  Am
They echo through the frame and six feet down.
      F          B7
What killed the dead end?
C                 Em
Burn it to the ground.

Pre-Chorus:
Am                          Em
Oh, woah-woah! Lose out or give out.
Am                         B7         B
Oh, woah-woah! Give up or live down.
Am                      Em
Oh, woah-woah! Nobody chose it.
Am                     B7       C            Em
Oh, woah-woah! Nobody knows it better than I do.

Chorus:
 G                  Em               G
Feet, don't fail me now the ways my eyes did!
 Em                    E                      Am
Mind, don't snap, and heart don't break, not now!
     F       B7   B
No, not like th--is!
C                  Em
Any but this breakdown!
