Bm
Of your cannons fire,
Bm
Understand your resignation,
Bm
And your contemptuous choir.


[Verse 2]
    G                   Bm
Separated by the silence,
           G   Bm
Your stoic pacifier,
D       G            Bm
Endless gazing to discover,
            G         Bm   A
Through the limitless sky.


[Chorus]
A             G   Bm         D
You said "goodbye" so long ago,
      G                          D        A
But I can't remember  why  that  it feels so  wrong,
              Bm             D
You said "goodbye"  so long ago,
         G                          A         Bb
But I'll wash your sins away if you just stay strong.


[Post-Chorus]
G
And you say you understand me,
G
Gonna make a man see,
Bm
Talking to my head now,
Bm
Nothing to explain,
   C               Em   G  A  N.C.
To follow me, it's easy.


[Verse 3]
N.C.       G            Bm
Procession of your resignation,
           G    Bm
Your fallacy sublime,
              G              Bm
But sweet the tongue of resurrection,
           G    Bm   A
The tangle to unwind.


[Chorus]
A             G  Bm          D
You said "goodbye" so long ago,
      G                          D        A
But I can't remember  why  that  it feels so  wrong,
              Bm             D
You said "goodbye"  so long ago,
         G                          A         Bb
But I'll wash your sins away if you just stay strong.

Lay down your blade,

I'll swallow mine,

And tell no-one,

Your perfect lie. . .
