Gm7 F Bb
[Verse 1]
C Gm7 F Bb
Esther walks the hall,
C Gm7 F Bb
carrying a candle
C Gm7 F Bb
Listens at the wall,
C Gm7 F Bb
for a sign of life
Cm Gm Eb F
Closing her eyes as the room fades away
Cm Gm Eb F Gm F Eb
Counting the chimes in the church of our saviour ringing out
F Gm7 F Bb
To faces in the crowd
[Verse 2]
C Gm7 F Bb
Simon drives this town,
C Gm7 F Bb
works a graveyard Sunday
C Gm7 F Bb
Esther flags him down,
C Gm7 F Bb
doesn't speak a word
Cm Bb Eb F
He hums to himself as the streets disappear
Cm Bb Eb F Gm F Eb
He catches himself looking back in the mirror filled with doubt

Two faces in the crowd
[Chorus]

On the ferry from Dover to Calais

Arm in arm on a windswept day

[Verse 3]
C Gm7 F Bb
I stop to count the chimes,
C Gm7 F Bb
an orphan in the shadows
C Gm7 F Bb
So little left behind,
C Gm7 F Bb
so much I'll never know
Cm Bb Eb F
A list in 'The Times' of the lives lost at sea
Cm Bb Eb F
An old photograph and a past that seems so like
[Chorus]
