Verse 1
Am
I see you in windows
Am
That open so wide
G
There's nothing beyond them
Am
And no one inside
Verse 2
Am
You kick off your sandals
Am
And shake out your hair
G
The salt on your shoulders
Am
Like sparks in the air
Verse 3
Am
There's silt on your ankles
Am
And sand on your feet
G
The river too shallow
Am
The ocean too deep
Verse 4
Am
You smile at your suffering
Am
The sweetest reprieve
G
Why did you leave us?
Am
Why did you leave?
Chorus
C
You kick off your sandals
C
And shake out your hair
E7
It's torn where you're dancing
E7
It's torn everywhere
Verse 5
Am
It's torn on the right
Am
And it's torn on the left
F
It's torn in the centre
F Fmaj7b5 E
Which few can accept
Verse 6
Am
It's torn where there's beauty
Am
It's torn where there's death
G
It's torn where there's mercy
Am
But torn somewhat less
Verse 7
Am
It's torn in the highest
Am
From kingdom to crown
G
The messages fly
Am
But the network is down
Verse 8
Am
Bruised at the shoulder
Am
And cut at the wrist
G
The sea rushes home
Am
To its thimble of mist
Verse 9
Am
The opposites falter
Am
The spirals reverse
G
And Eve must re-enter
Am
The sleep of her birth
Chorus
C
And up through the system
C
The worlds are withdrawn
E7
From every dominion
E7
The mind stood upon
Am
And now that you told her
Am
And now that it's done
F
The name has no number
F Fmaj7b5 E
Not even the one
Verse 10
Am
Come gather the pieces
Am
All scattered and lost
G
The lie in what's holy
Am
The light in what's not
Verse 11
Am
The story's been written
Am
The letter's been sealed
G
You gave me a lily
Am
But now it's a field
Outro
Am
You kick off your sandals
Am
And shake out your hair
G
It's torn where you're dancing
Am
It's torn everywhere
