My Own Face Inside The Trees

E                                F#m
All the pines that shiver in the park
                          G#m
Kick my fever through the dark
                             F#m
Through the railings and the iron
                        E
Empty bars and tenement lines
                          F#m
Something slips back into place
                       G#m
For a second there's a trace
                      A
Of my face inside the trees
                B
Sudden light in everything

Break:
| B     | F#m   | A     | E     | x2

I get up and head down into work
Running errands like a jerk
But the fever does me in
Never touching anything
Like the sea inside a shell
Everything speaks to itself
Darkness comes at half-past three
My own face is in the trees

Break:
| B     | F#m   | A     | E     | x2
| E     |
| D     | A     | E     |       | x2

Middle 8 (x2):
    D                A
For six years I have seen a friend
E
In summer crowds in Europe
         D               A   E
When the evening falls

So I left myself back in the night
Moving into clearer light
Neither here nor really gone
Both surrounded and alone
Like the sea inside a shell
Everything speaks to itself
Darkness comes at half-past three
My own face is in the trees

Outro:
| B     | F#m   | A     | E     | x2

Dah da da da da da da da da...
| E     | F#m   | G#m   | F#m   | to fade
