Like Slow Disappearing

F Dm


[Verse]
Dm                         F
Three sixteens of an inch,
F           C      Gm
Disappeared right behind your lips, we were
Dm
Waiting and watching the light in the sky,
       C       Gm
And it hurt my eyes.


[Verse]
Dm
I guess that it must have been then,
F                     Gm
We slipped out of our caging heads and got
Dm                                            F     Gm
Tangled and lost and dove further out into it all again.


[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                    F         C
And I was afraid, but you were glowing like,
Dm           C
The most relieving light.
Bb             C
You were my revealing light.


[Chorus]
Bb                                   F C       F
I closed my eyes and suddenly we were attached.
Bb                                  F
You stayed with me after the moment passed,
                  Bb
I felt you buried deep under my chest,
        F                        C
Like my lungs when I’m breathing in,
F         Bb                             F
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes again.

Dm


[Verse]
Dm                  F
Over our heads in a daze,
F                            Gm
We sat and watched while the setting changed into,
Dm                                              F    Gm
Something I'd read in a book that I loved when I was young


[Verse]
Dm
I fixed my stare to the screen,
F                         Gm
A show with a monster was on the TV,
       Dm                                       F
It was early October, and all of the yards were alive
     Gm
With lights.


[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                    F         C
And I was afraid, but you were glowing like,
Dm           C
The most relieving light.
Bb             C
You were my revealing light.


[Chorus]
Bb                                   F C       F
I closed my eyes and suddenly we were attached.
Bb                                  F
You stayed with me after the moment passed,
                  Bb
I felt you buried deep under my chest,
        F                        C
Like my lungs when I’m breathing in,
F         Bb                             F
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes again.

Bb                                   F C       F
I closed my eyes and suddenly we were attached.
Bb                                  F
You stayed with me after the moment passed,
                  Bb
I felt you buried deep under my chest,
        F                        C
Like my lungs when I’m breathing in,
F         Bb                             F
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes again.

I closed my eyes and suddenly we were attached.
Bb                                  F
You stayed with me after the moment passed,
                  Bb
I felt you buried deep under my chest,
        F                        C
Like my lungs when I’m breathing in,
F         Bb                             F
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes again.
