G#m
Tram wires cross Northern skies
          E        G#m
Cut my blue heart in two

G#m
My knuckles bleed down Taddert street
     E                         G#m
On a door that shouldn't be in front of me

G#m
Twelve thousand miles away from your smile
     E                         G#m
I'm twelve thousand miles away from me

G#m
Standing on the corner of Brunswick
        E                      G#m
Got the rain coming down and mascara on my cheek

[Chorus A]
   B          F#            G#m          E
Oh whisper me words in the shape of a bay
   B          F#            G#m
Shelter my love from the wind and the rain

[Verse 2]
G#m
Crow fly be my alibi
E                             G#m
And return this fable on your wing

G#m
Take it far away to where gipsies play
E                             G#m
Beneath metal stars by the bridge

[Chorus A]
   B          F#            G#m          E
Oh write me a beacon so I know the way
   B          F#            G#m
Guide my love through night and through day

[Chorus B]
E                                              G#m
Only the sunset knows my blind desire for the fleeting
E                               E                  G#m        B        F#             G#m
Only the moon understands, the beauty of love When held by a hand like the aura of nostalgia
