(Am - Am7 Fade-in)

Am                             E7sus4   E7
The only time I ever heard the voice of God
            F              C            E7sus4            E7
Was in the silence of the night in the arms of the one I love
Dm              G         C Cmaj9/B Am
Staring at the ceiling up above
     G               E7sus4   E       Am
Like it contained the secrets of the stars


Am                         E7sus4  E7
Any time I ever woke up in a dream
F                  C            E7sus4  E7
I saw my shadow there staring back at me
Dm              G         C Cmaj9/B Am
Moving through the walls and wondering
        G         E7sus4   E      Am
As all the world rose up inside of me


    F                E7sus4  E7
And I long to hear the melody
     Am  Gadd4  F       Em   Dm
That one time played inside my mind
    Dm              E7sus4  E7
And to love another helplessly
   Am   Gadd4  F    Em    F     Em   E7sus4 E7
So breathing feels like putting out a fire


Am                           E7sus4  E7
Any time my life flashes in front of me
F                C            E7sus4  E7
I see a child there as if on a screen
Dm              G       C Cmaj9/B Am
Standing in the shadows flickering
        G    E7sus4   E     Am
For a moment I know what it means


**Joey's chords during Kenneth's solo
        C - Em - Am 


Am                           E7sus4  E7
All this time I lived inside a memory
F                  C           E7sus4                   E7
Daylight creeping in through a crack in the weathered seams
Dm            G       C Cmaj9/B Am
Severing the ties and trembling
G             E7sus4   E      Am
Losing all the voices in the wind


    F                E7sus4  E7
And I long to hear the melody
     Am  Gadd4  F       Em   Dm
That one time played inside my mind
    Dm              E7sus4  E7
And to love another helplessly
   Am   Gadd4  F    Em    F     Em E7sus4 E7
So breathing feels like putting out a fire
