The Silence Between Us chords by Bob Mould

Intro: Em  A  F#  A

Em     A        F#
There were trails of fallen trees
     A
Deciduous and weeding marsh
Em     A              F#
The lowland birds and crickets roared
    D A    Em
The final sound of fall
Em    A       F#
Along the banks of the river
  A
We approached the footbridge
Em   A   F#
Entering the wilderness
F#    D    A
Following my footstep

C# E    B  A       C#
The silence between us is the time
E   B  A      C#  E
When I can't hear the thoughts
E     B    A
Thoughts on your mind,
G# A
yeah

E     A         F#
Beyond the panic and worried that
     A          Em
Seems to consume most every thought
Em      A        F#
There lies a calm and steady hand
   D    A     Em
That someday you might see
Em     A       F#
Perhaps it isn't what you wanted
  A            Em
Or even what you're looking for
Em      A
But once you see the symmetry
F#    D    A
Once you see the you and me


C#   E    B    A
Winter lovers, we're so nervous
  C#  E   B   A
The words will disappear
C#   E      B    A
What thoughts are on your mind,
G# A
yeah

F#              A     E
You park the car outside the Holiday Inn
F#             A      E
We cross the highway single-file
F#            A       E
And you were walking in a hurry
F#              A     E
And there was me without water with a smile
Yeah!

solo


C#   E    B    A
Winter lovers, we're so nervous
  C#  E   B   A
The words will disappear
C#   E      B    A
What thoughts are on your mind,
G# A
yeah

G#      A
On your mind, yeah
G#      A
On your mind, yeah
G#      A
On your mind, yeah
