Capo 4
key of G# major
Be sure to accent the alternating bass notes occurring on the low E and A,

Chords relative to capo
E
even the most shimmering rain
A
empties out the sky and comes to an end
E
we all know that the sun is king
A E
there's no messing with our orbiting
B E
so why is he standing in his own backyard?
D A E
crying at his falling down house of card?
did you see the ice in his eye?
did you see the dagger caught in his smile?
innocent as a summer flower
with a serpent coiled under his collar
so why is he standing in his own backyard?
crying at his falling down house of card?

Verse:
Ab - C#
Chorus:
Eb - Ab
F# - C# - Ab
