A        Esus4
Turn the key
            A
start the flame
D           Dadd9
fog, heat, motion
                 D
In the concrete ocean.
            A               Esus4
Is there a fog outside the glass?
                    A
Or a fog inside my mind?
             D                    Dadd9
I watch the clock, I'll watch the sky
                        D
but still I won't know why.
           A           Esus4
Now this highway is twisting
                 A
like a barber's pole
           D        Dadd9
where you bled me out
                     D
but I didn't have a doubt.
A              Esus4               A
Everything you did, everything you said
         D         Dadd9
had its rhyme and reason.

[finger picking]

         Esus4
I wish I stopped but once
   Dmaj9
to shine the silver platter
  Gmaj9                   Dsus2
I used to show my excuses for you.

         Esus4
I wonder if I would see
   Dmaj9
my face in the reflection
       Gmaj9                   Dsus2
or the mask that had become my skin?

(Instrumental break)

[strumming]

    Esus4          Dmaj9
But now I see clearly
       Gmaj9    Dsus2         
clear as glass:
     Esus4                 Dmaj9
the only thing keeping the wind
             Gmaj9         Dsus2
from blowing you out of my head.
           Esus4         Dmaj9
I took the key out of my back
          Gmaj9        Dsus2
you won't wind me up again
        Esus4         Dmaj9
I won't sing for you anymore
             Gmaj9           Dsus2
I won't make excuses for you anymore.

                Esus4
I'll put on the same clothes
       Dmaj9          Gmaj9   Dsus2 
that I wore yesterday.
        Esus4          Dmaj9
Because tears dry, and lies die.
        Dmaj9                   Dsus2
But the sun always rises in the morning.

Coda:
D  Dsus2  Gmaj9  G
