Intro:
C           G           F
 And we keep speeding, and we keep speeding
C           G           F
 And we keep crashing, and we keep crashing
C           G           F
 And we keep reaching, and we keep reaching
C          G            F
 And we keep crying, 'til we start laughing

    C    G     F
Long before my fall from grace
    C    G     F
For a piece of me, they appeared
     C      G    F
From the throat, I'm tied to you
    C     G     F
All of us, still cracked in two

  Her beauty is a form of charity
G                  Dm
  Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow
