Bm7   F#m7

[VERSE 1]

E     Em
Electric cables
B     Bm
Beneath the Atlantic
E     Em
There's a radar
B     Bm
Beneath the black water
E     Em
Rain flecks the paint
B     Bm
Inevitably
E     Em
At the end of the telescope
B
By the pier

[PD-C HORUS]

Am                          Em
I know you'd rather I didn't say
                            Am
That I want to look after you
                            Em
But I'd expect you to say the same

For me someday
D   A                    Bm
This knowledge gives me no pleasure
D   A                    Bm
You can't kill yourself before you're born

[CHORUS]

Bm7                      F#m7
Particles like Russian dolls
Bm7                      F#m7
Folding items ever smaller

[VERSE 2]

E     Em
Grey wire fences
B     Bm
Section off the wilderness
E     Em          B                 Bm
A lonely cluster of woodland stands apart
E     Em
Like the fingers of a hand
B     Bm
Gently browning
E     Em
Flat sections of cheap paint
B     Bm
Float by like butterflies

[PD-C HORUS]

Am                          Em
I know you'd rather I didn't say
                            Am
That I want to look after you
                            Em
But I'd expect you to say the same

For me someday

D   A                 Bm
My demeanour is made to measure
D      A                Bm
Nothing stirs beneath the farce of daily life

[CHORUS]

Bm7                      F#m7
Particles like Russian dolls
Bm7                      F#m7
Folding items ever smaller
Bm7                      F#m7
If life never ended we'd have no urgency
Bm7                      F#m7
Connect to boredom and repetition
