Verse 1:
F                           Dm  Let's call this the quiet city
Where screams are felt 
              Bbas a wave of stoplights
                   CDrive through the streets as 
                       Fgunshots punctuate the night
             DmThe sides we take divide 
        Bbus from our faith
        CAnd the morning dove gets 
                        Dmcaught in the telephone wire
  F                DmAsleep you set the fire 
   Bb   C   Dm   Fin your own house
And the night was 
  Dm         Bba knife that cut
    CAnd I'm para--

   Bb             CWe pulled all the leaves 
                    Dmfrom the trees that fall
(your trees that fall
your trees that fall
your trees that fall

F  A silent dance that we 
Dm                     Bbdid into this hospital bed

                     Dmbut you leave in the sand
              Bbthe leaves fallen
                      Ccounting down days to live
Drain the blood 
               F    Bb from this valentine!
        Dm"We can rise on the 
         Bbwings of the dove
          DmSee blue skies getting caught 
                          F   Bbin the trail of all this smoke
       DmWe can rise like candles in 
Bbthe dark-yours always"
C  and an envelope marked with

And the night was
