(Verse)
G
This is not an escape
CGEm
But I don't know how to hold somebody without losing my grip
G
You'll say I was bound to leave
C
Since I first stepped across your borders
GEm
Since I crawled into your skin
DG
Thought I heard you whisper in the dark
C
That you knew where the light would be
EmDG
Thought I saw your shape against the black
C
Thought I felt you moving beside me
DGC
We are not alone and we are more alone than we've ever been
D
So hurry up and lose me
GEm
Hurry up and find me, again
G Em (x2)
G
So I'll pass the lumber mills
EmC
I'll pass the coal mines and the parks
GEm
And the dried up oil fields
CGEm
I'll pass a thousand lonely pines that bend the backs against the sun
CGEm
But I'll mistake the station birds for the sound of my phone ringing
DG
Thought I heard you whisper in the dark
C
That you knew where the light would be
EmDG
Don't wait for me to walk a straight line
C
You can only hold your breath so long
DGC
We are not alone and we are more alone than we've ever been
D
So hurry up and lose me
GEm
Hurry up and find me, again
G Em (x2)
G
But I am no less bound to you
EmC
Than when I crossed into your silence
GEm
When I held your solitude
G
But you never liked it
When I'd play dead
EmCGEm
And you wondered why my love songs are always the grieving kind
CGEm
Why I wander off to search for my reflection in the crowd
CEm
Oh, forget I said love
GC
And also, don't forget I said love
DGC
We are not alone and we are more alone than we've ever been
D
So hurry up and lose me
GEm
Hurry up and find me again
G Em (x4)
