Somewhere Unoccupied

Eb              Dm       Bb / Eb
   You got some bad news
            Dm
You took it face first
            Bb    Eb
Like people often do
          Dm           Bb / Eb
No matter how advanced
   Dm
An enlightened perspective's no
Bb         Eb
Safeguard against

[Pre-Chorus]
  Bb   C
A real life
         Bb  C
With its nosedives
    Bb     C
Its gutter lows
    Dm      Bb
Its sunrise heights

[Chorus]
Bb             Gm ~ F
   I heard you say,
Cm        Eb  Bb
  "I'm an acrobat
          Gm ~ F
I cheated death
Cm              Eb       Bb
   Now death is cheating back
        Cm      Dm        Eb
I thought I might hide out
                 Bb
Become the empty sky
             Gm
But I had to land
           F
I couldn't find
Cm             Eb
   Somewhere unoccupied"

[Intro Riff] 
Dm / Bb / Eb x2

[Verse 2]
Eb             Dm           Bb / Eb
   You sang in ghost notes:
         Dm
A second history
          Bb     Eb
A pool of broken code
           Dm           Bb / Eb
I felt the moment slide
         Dm                       Eb      F
You were bridging the halves of a great divide

[Chorus]
Bb             Gm ~ F
   I heard you say,
Cm               Eb   Bb
  "If there's an architect
              Gm ~ F
Let's see the plan
Cm               Eb      Bb
   Let's see who gets it next
        Cm          Dm
I'm sure, sometimes,
           Eb                Bb
Except when I'm certain otherwise."
            Gm             F
I felt your hand fold into mine,

[Bridge - Arpeggiated Finger Style Optional]
Eb              F        Bb
   And I was preoccupied
                Eb
Felt fleeting & small
Eb                F         Bb
   Completely surrounded by
                Eb
The fates of us all
Cm              F            Bb
   You were the troubled one
                Eb
But you took me on
Eb             F     Bb
   You carried me along
            Gm ~ F
I heard you say,

[Chorus - LOUDLY, "chugga" pickup/grace F]
Cm        Eb         Bb
 "Go be a welcome mat.
           Gm ~ F
A sign of home;
Cm            Eb    Bb
   An uncomplicated fact
       Cm        Dm
Outside yourself,
               Eb                  Bb
The whole world is helping someone else.
          Gm                F
An act of grace, a clearing mind -
Cm             Eb  Bb ~ Cm ~ Dm ~ Eb ~
   Somewhere unoccupied"         
Eb                 Bb ~ Cm ~ Dm ~ Eb ~ [x3]
