Asphalt Meadows

Intro N.C. [Verse 1] Em Your kiss was a lonely prayer D When you slipped it into my mouth Cmaj7 I closed my eyes and held it in Am Then I exhaled it out Em The glow of the downtown lights D Casting shadows across your face Cmaj7 As if all the buildings knew E I could only know half of you [Verse 2] Em And I was a snake under your flowers D I just wanted to disappear Cmaj7 Into the understory of your beauty Am Never to reappear Em But there's a name written on your cast D Above the bruised and broken bones Cmaj7 It tells everybody that you need E To whom the damage is owеd Chorus Am We are a wave of whitе noise Fmaj7 Beneath the city sleeping C I saw the train doors closing D I felt your sorrow deepen Am Here in the asphalt meadows Fmaj7 There's only one thing that grows C Finding the life through the concrete D Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Getting trampled under our feet [Verse 3] Em You set all your bridges in rows D They all lead to an airport Cmaj7 Planes drifting off into the sky Am Always depart, but never seem to arrive Em And there in the early hour D Lying naked in your unmade bed Cmaj7 I was thinking of how to tell you E What my ticket read Bridge Em Your kiss was a lonely prayer D A single candle, slowly burning down Cmaj7 But the light, your light was beautiful E Then it's here and now Chorus Am We are a wave of whitе noise Fmaj7 Beneath the city sleeping C I saw the train doors closing D I felt your sorrow deepen Am Here in the asphalt meadows Fmaj7 There's only one thing that grows C Finding the life through the concrete D Cmaj7 Am Getting trampled under our feet Am We are a wave of whitе noise Fmaj7 Beneath the city sleeping C I saw the train doors closing G I felt your sorrow deepen Am Here in the asphalt meadows Fmaj7 There's only one thing that grows C Finding the life through the concrete D Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Getting trampled under our feet D Cmaj7 Getting trampled under our feet Cmaj7 D Getting trampled under our feet Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Getting trampled under our feet Outro D Cmaj7 Cmaj7 E E E E E
