[Intro]
Em D C G D C D Em

[Verse]
N.C. Em D C G
When the evening, like a sparrow, folds down under it's small wings
Em D C D
All the light bones and the feathers of the day
C G D G
Only then, in that moment, stop the rushing and just hold me
C G D G
Lay your hands where it hurts and we'll leave it that way

[Interlude]
G D C G D Em
Ooh ooh, oooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh

[Verse]
N.C. Em D C G
Well, I have often dreamt of angels, but I very rarely see them
Em D C D
But I know that they've been this way, something smells like sky
C G D G
In the rustle of their presence, it's a lot like your breathing
C G D G
Sounds a lot like a promise, but I can't say why

[Interlude]
G D C G D Em
Ooh ooh, oooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh

[Bridge]
D Bm Em C
And I have searched all the wise and the unwise places
G G/B D
I have known the price of passion and what solitude buys
Bm Em C
It was you I was looking for in all those faces
G D G
Always you I was hoping for when I closed my eyes

[Verse]
N.C. Em D C G
Well, I will gather all the feathers that collect up in the corners
Em D C D
All the risings and the fallings in the quiet of the day
C G D G
When you speak, there's a flutter of some winged thing stirring
C G D G
Lay your head on my heart and we'll leave it that way

[Outro]
G D C G D Em
Ooh ooh, oooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
D C G D Em
Ooh ooh, oooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
