Capo at 1st
C
You put your hand on top of mine
G
you're talking fast but talking blind
F C G
and I can't bring myself to meet your eyes
C
'cos death is slowly covering you
G
in galaxies of black and blue
F C G
and under your skin all his colors bloom
Dm
And you're only half here
Am G Dm Am G
like someone left a frail body and took the rest
C F Dm
But I remember when you were strong
G C F
never wanted help from no-one
Dm G C, Dm, G
what you've become is not who I remember
C, Dm, Em, F, G
Is this the cooling of the embers?
C
She's back again through summers past
G
the smell of rain and freshly cut grass
F C G
seems those ordinary days are the ones that last
C
Cos he was there, the one you loved
G
the one you never could let go of
F C G
and there's something you know as you're looking up
Dm
That your only half here
Am G Dm Am G
like someone left a frail body and stole the rest
C F Dm
But I remember when you were strong
G C F
never wanted help from no-one
Dm G C, Dm, Em
what you've become is not who I remember
F C, Dm, Em, F, G, Am, F. G
Is this the cooling of the embers?
Am F
is this the cooling of the embers?
G Am F
Cos you are not who I remember
G Am F
it's like you are a child, you are a child, you are a child once more
G Am F
and all of our yesterday's have gone
C
You put your hand on top of mine
G
you're talking fast but talking blind
F C G
and I can't bring myself to meet your eyes...
