BmF#7sus4/C#A stormy summer
F#7Bm
Is rolling closer
BmGmaj7Em7F#7sus4F#7
Lighting up this holy smoker
BmF#7sus4/C#
And if this drinking
F#7Bm
Could ease the thinking
B/AGmaj7C#m
I'd toast to my home truth
F#
With this glass
EmF#m7BmBm/A
Oh, rise, you promises broken
EmF#m7BmBm/A
Call my lovers by their names
EmF#m7Bm
Lost hearts and words
Bm/AC#m9
That are spoken to the wind
F#7
Which blows before the rain...

BmF#7sus4/C#
Little pin pricks
F#7Bm
And how my ears bleed
BmGmaj7Em7F#7sus4F#7
On the bomb ticks that is my heartbeat
BmF#7sus4/C#
In every life flash
F#7Bm
In every car crash
B/AGmaj7C#mF#7
I hear the silence waiting to fall
EmF#m7BmBm/A
Oh, rise, you promises broken
EmF#m7BmBm/A
Call my lovers by their names
EmF#m7Bm
Lost hearts and words
Bm/AC#m9
That are spoken to the wind
F#7
Which blows before the rain...

BmF#7sus4/C#
For all I carry
F#7Bm
Are murdered secrets
BmGmaj7Em7F#7sus4F#7
The price of my blue star-eyed weakness
BmF#7sus4/C#
And so we travel
F#7Bm
And we unravel
B/AGmaj7C#mF#7
Towards the place where all loose ends go
EmF#m7BmBm/A
Oh, rise, you promises broken
EmF#m7BmBm/A
Call my lovers by their names
EmF#m7Bm
Lost hearts and words
Bm/AC#m9
That are spoken to the wind
F#7
Which blows before the rain...
