Verse 1:
B         Bmaj7
I can feel it on my tongue
        B
Brick and mortar thick as scripture
    B      G#m       D#m    F#
Drawing lines in the sand and laying borders as tall as towers
B          B
I babble on until my voice is gone

Verse 2:
B              Bmaj7     B
This hill I'll die on is about 90 meters of bricks
           B      G#m         D#m
Colored indigo, inscribed with my name, and lined with cedar
    F#          B
But the words fall flat like cymbals crashing
   B         F#
Like molars gnashing


Chorus:
F#                     B
'Cause like constellations a million years away
          G#m   C#        B
Every good intention, every good intention
B         F#           B
Is interpolation, a line we drew in the array
            G#m
Looking for the faces
               G#m
Looking for the shapes in the silence

C|--------1---3--|--------1----|
G|--1------------|--1----------|


Verse 3:
B             B           B
All that's left for me to climb to the heavens is the chasm of the night
   B     C#
And a matter of time
        F#
But I hear the rumble
        F#
As the tectonic plates start to shake
   B                B     C#   F#
And I feel my blood pounding like the beat of a drum


Chorus:
F#                     B
'Cause like constellations a million years away
          G#m   C#        B
Every good intention, every good intention
B         F#           B
Is interpolation, a line we drew in the array
            G#m
Clinging to the faces
               G#m
Clinging to the shapes in the silence

Chorus:
F#                  Bmaj7
Like constellations imploding in the night
           G#m
Everything is turning, everything is turning
F#                             B
And the shapes that you drew may change beneath a different light
                G#m                   F#
And everything you thought you knew will fall apart, but you'll be all right
