[Intro]
B A#m G# F#m D#m
B A#m G# F#m D#m
Em

[Verse 1]
Em
I didn't think that this could be
Em
All that unto death do we
Em
'Til you managed the lock and magicked the key
Em
After a night of hard drinking and ecstasy

[Pre-Chorus]
F Am
It's softer than words that are spoken
F Em
Blackened on paper that's shredded and torn
F Am
Or carved into stones lying shattered and broken
Bm7b5 E7
Branches beckoned along the wrong path
Bm7b5 E+
Winding up in the past

[Chorus]
Em
And this dark and velvet night that surrounds us
Em
This dark and velvet night, I will wrap around us
F Am
It's softer than words that are spoken
F Em
Or painted as slogans and flung to the lions
F Am
Written on slips as the punters wait smoking
Bm7b5 E7
A leap of faith, the odds sky-high
Bm7b5 E+
Said goodbye to your place or mine

[Bridge]
Fm Cm Dbmaj7 Cm
Don't like to make promises that I can't keep
Fm Cm Dbmaj7 Cm
Don't want to hurt this old heart or wreck my sleep
Fm
Thinking how will we part?
Cm Dbmaj7 Cm
Will I hold your hand or you be left holding mine?
B A#m G# D#m
Between this breath and then
B A#m G# D#m
There's this airlock of time
F#m B
This airlock of time
