Intro : F7M/C
F7M/C Dm9/F
The soft unsettled quiet from
Dm/F Cm Eb7M - Dm9/F
a million questions never answered
F7M/C Dm9/F
Expecting conversational
Dm/F Cm Eb7M - Dm9/F
return more akin to diapason
F - G - A - B F7M/C
Hope for reason fades away
F - G - A - B F7M/C F - G - A - Bb
A hint of heartache in it's place

Waiting for you
F7M/C Dm9/F
But I'll still hold on hope

As frail as the evening's ghostly gloam
F - G - A - B F7M/C F - G - A - Bb
Staring till' the stars align

C C/G F7M/C
And still we stand here praying
C C/G F7M/C
For something more divine
C C/G F7M/C
Our hands clasped so tightly
C C/G F7M/C
But our eyes are closed and shy
C C/G F7M/C
We move along
C C/G F7M/C
when there's nothing left for us
C C/G F7M/C
We move along
C C/G F7M/C B
when there's nothing left for us here.
