"simmer down"
(2017)

[Refrain 1]
F#
GmM7             F#
When you wake up
GmM7                 GM7 F# GmM7
For when you wake up

[Verse 1]
       F#
There once was a land
       GmM7        F#      GmM7
Little known to your kind
       GM7
There once was a land
                   F#
Only we knew how to find
      GmM7    GM7
Where we were fire
                         F#
Simmer down, simmer down

[Verse 2]
         F#
When my hands are sore
         GmM7               F#   GmM7
From carrying this weight around
         GM7
When my eyes are numb
                           F#
And the air is failing on our lungs
GmM7       GM7
And we’re left with a bitter taste
               F#
On our tongues

[Chorus]
F#m  G#m  A   C#m
Your shallow truth
                  E              C#m
Fractures and distorts our self views
   F#m G#m A   C#m
And my tether beat
               E         G#m
Echoes in the minds of a few

[Refrain 1]
F#
GmM7                 F#
For when you wake up
GmM7                 GM7 F# GmM7
For when you wake up

[Verse 3]
N.C
All light absorbed
                    F#     GmM7
In the shadows I will hide
          GM7
'Til the contour of my silhouette
             F#
Fades to undefined
   GmM7      GM7
I still have fire
Simmer down, simmer down

[Chorus]
N.C
Your shallow truth
N.C
Fractures and distorts our self views
   F#m G#m A   C#m
And my tether beat
               E         G#m
Echoes in the minds of a few

[Chorus]
F#m  G#m  A   C#m
Your shallow truth
                  E              C#m
Fractures and distorts our self views
   F#m G#m A   C#m
And my tether beat
               E         G#m
Echoes in the minds of a few

[Refrain 2]
F#
GmM7                 F#
For when you wake up
GmM7                 GM7 F# GmM7 F#
If you ever wake up
