"Time of Dust"(2014)

INTRO
F#m
F#
F#m
 He's a shattered sculpture
DM7
 He's a deaf conductor
F#m                    DM7
 And his only score is burning
F#m
 So they hit the doldrums
DM7
 In joint discordance
C#m7                       Bm7
 It's a wordless, dead-end sermon

F#m
 Like a violen scrape
DM7
 Like the hiss of a tape
F#m                DM7
 It always sounds unnerving
F#m
 And it needs us the most
DM7
 'Cos it feeds off the host
C#m7                    Bm7
 And it softly stays disturbing

A                        F#m
 Here's a ticket for the front row view
E                      D                  F#m
 The saddest orchestra, it only plays for you
F#m A D E

F#m            A                        D   E
 Ever so sadly, ever so slightly out of tune
F#m            A                        D   E
 Ever so sadly, ever so slightly out of tune
F#m DM7 F#m DM7

F#m
 Passing ships in the night
DM7
 Not an end in sight
F#m                        DM7
 And we're stuck in uncharted waves
F#m
 So you shrink in your chair
DM7
 As it resolves nowhere
C#m7                  Bm7
 And it ends in quiet disorder

A                        F#m
 Here's a ticket for the front row view
E                     D                   F#m
 The saddest orchestra, it only plays for you
F#m A D E

F#m            A                        D   E
 Ever so sadly, ever so slightly out of tune
F#m            A                        D   E
 Ever so sadly, ever so slightly out of tune

D#m
 There is no beauty in here
We keep our hands in the dirt
Don't need to seek a prayer
Or say any poignant words
G#m
 But even when good and bad
I need you in sickness & health
D#m
 There is no beauty in here
                    F#m
I don't want anyone else
F#m A D E

F#m            A                        D   E
 Ever so sadly, ever so slightly out of tune
F#m            A                        D   E
 Ever so sadly, ever so slightly out of tune

D#m
 [fade out...]
