	        verse 1 
Ab                                       Bbm 
Dark auditorium, half of the audience sleeps 
      Ab                   Bbm                        Ab 
I am awake through every display of doubt turning the grave 

Pre-Chorus 
               Gb   Ab                   Bbm Ab 
While you were watching the back of your eyelids 
     Bbm Fm Eb 
I was awake 

verse 2 
Ab 
Broken and battered and split like an atom 
   Bbm                          Ab 
In debt to god, but what's it to you 
                 Bbm 
If somewhere a glass jewel breaks 
                Ab 
And rings like a bell 

Pre-Chorus 
                  Gb   Ab                 Bbm  Ab 
Are you bandaging feet or done with the Peace Corps? 
          Bbm Fm Eb 
I couldn't tell 

Chorus Ab Now I'm putting drinks away Ab Like a poet on payday Gb And I'm not toasting your name E Or your good health
verse 3 Ab When twenty years of peace Bbm Fall under the roof of love Ab And every heart seems Bbm To beat like a broken drum Chorus Ab Now I'm putting drinks away Ab Like a poet on payday Gb And I'm not toasting your name Ab Or your good health Outro Db They say the thing about starts Ab Is you're risking them finishing Db And a line of love Ab Draws maps on your skin Db Well that's the about shoes Ab You know some of us live in them Db When it's too late to want love Ab I'll know where I've been Db They say the thing about starts Ab Is they're made out of finishes Db And a longing of love Ab Draws maps on your skin Db Well that's the about shoes Ab You know some of us live in them Db When it's too late to want love Ab I'll know where I've been Bbm Fm Ab (x2) I'll know where I've been
