Intro: G#m/B

G#m/B                   G#m/B
Passing the corners we kissed in the rain
G#m/B                   G#m/B
Passing the old rusted warning signs
                C#m
What did they say?
                G#m/B
I think they said run!

G#m/B                   G#m/B
Passing the roofs of excuses we made
G#m/B                   G#m/B
Passing these open windows
                            C#m
What made me turn away?
                        F#                                      
How did I fight the flat days and the static nights?
            G#m/B
            E*/D#                       F#/G#m
Saint Rosa, she flies!
F#/E                                    G#m/B
She flies with the swallows
               E*/D#            
Saint Rosa, I feel
F#/G#m                   F#/E
I could follow back to Capistrano
C#m
And I will hold you tight
                      F#
Through the cold days and the frozen nights

G#m/B

G#m/B
Passing our enemies
G#m/B
Passing our friends
G#m/B                                                    C#
Passing the things we use to tell the difference between

It’s subtle
G#m/B                   G#m/B
And I try to remember if I was ever lonely
G#m/B                   G#m/B                  C#m
If I was ever low? Hell, hell yes I was low
                        F#
How did I fight the flat days and the static nights?

               E*/D#                    F#/G#m
Saint Rosa, she flies!
F#/E                                    G#m/B
She flies with the swallows
               E*/D#            
Saint Rosa, I feel
F#/G#m                  F#/E
I could follow back to Capistrano
C#m
And I will hold you tight
                      F#
Through the cold days and the frozen nights

G#m              C#m                    F#
Passing all the days I switched to auto mode
B                A#                     G#m
Days for which I’ve nothing to show
                 C#m                    F#
Passing all the days I’m afraid I’ll forget
B                F#                     G#m/B
The days only clear for a second

                E*/D#                   F#/G#m
                F#/E                    G#m/B
The days only clear for a second
                E*/D#                   F#/G#m
                F#/E                    C#m
The days only clear for a second

But I will hold you tight
                 F#
Through the cold days and the frozen nights
G#m/B                   G#m/B
G#m/B                   G#m/B
When it’s cold, cold, cold

G#m/B                   G#m/B
G#m/B                   End on C#m
