[Intro]
Am Asus2 Am Asus2 Am Asus2 Am Asus2
[Verse]
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
Solitude stands by the window
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
She turns her head as I walk in the room
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
I can see by her eyes she's been waiting
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
Standing in the slant of the late afternoon
[Chorus]
Am7
And she turns to me with her hand extended
D5
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
[Break]
C Am7 C D
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
Solitude stands in the doorway
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
And I'm struck once again by her black silhouette
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
By her long cool stare and her silence
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
I suddenly remember each time we've met
[Chorus]
Am7
And she turns to me with her hand extended
D5
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
[Break]
C Am7 C D
[Post-Chorus]
Am7 G F
And she says "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"
Am7 G F
And she says "I've come to lighten this dark heart"
C#m7 B A
And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear
C#m7 B A
And I say "I've never thought of finding you here"
[Verse]
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
I turn to the crowd as they're watching
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
They're sitting all together in the dark in the warm
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
I wanted to be in there among them
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
I see how their eyes are gathered into one
[Chorus]
Am7
And she turns to me with her hand extended
D5
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
[Post-Chorus]
Am7 G F
And she says "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"
Am7 G F
And she says "I've come to lighten this dark heart"
C#m7 B A
And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear
C#m7 B A
And I say "I've never thought of finding you here"
[Verse]

And I'm struck once again by her black silhouette
Am Asus2 Am Asus2
