[Intro]

Am   C   D

Am   C   D

 

[Verse]

Am                       C                 D

Gone with the grace of a black-winged crow

     Am                 C         D

With all the tact of an exit poll

  F                       G

I banked the curve of the last back road

          C           G/B        D

While you washed your hands in a silver bowl

  F

I didn't want to know

                       G   Am

That's the way it goes

 

[Verse]

                    C           D

Pretty words traced in the dirt

  Am              C               D

A whisper without weight or worth

F                        G

Nonsense symbols written on the wall

C           G/B        D

Read by the light of a mirror ball

  F

A final flat-line scrawl

                 G

And that was all

 

[Chorus]

          C

There's a hole in the world

             G/B

I've seen it coming for some time

        Am

This is how it always ends

          D                 F

Up on the Ten O' Clock Line

 

[Chorus]

          C

There's a hole in the world

        G/B

Take me only a space

    Am

For something that's been waiting

  D               F

Until I turned my face

                  E7

Until I turned my face

 

[Instrumental]

Am   C   D

Am   C   D

 

[Verse]

    Am                    C             D

The leaves recount with a rasping sound

  Am                 C             D

A shadow cast on the autumn ground

       F                   G

It's a lovely wish, it's a tender sight

  C       G/B     D

A promise made on shifting light

F

Bad news from the start

                    G

And still I gave my heart

 

[Chorus]

          C

There's a hole in the world

             G/B

I've seen it coming for some time

        Am

This is how it always ends

          D                 F

Up on the Ten O' Clock Line

 

[Chorus]

          C

There's a hole in the world

        G/B

Take me only a space

    Am

For something that's been waiting

  D               F

Until I turned my face

                  E7

Until I turned my face

 

[Instrumental]

Am   C   D

Am   C   D

Am   C   D

Am   C   D

 

[Verse]

  Am                     C           D

I always thought I would start again

    Am            C            D

But I was so much younger then

   F               G

Perhaps no more of just the same

      C      G/B         D

But a deeper song with a different name

    F

The last one had its time

                       G

Up on the Ten O' Clock Line

 

[Chorus]

          C

There's a hole in the world

             G/B

I've seen it coming for some time

        Am

This is how it always ends

          D                 F

Up on the Ten O' Clock Line

 

[Chorus]

          C

There's a hole in the world

             G/B

I've seen it coming for some time

        Am

This is how it always ends

          D                 F

Up on the Ten O' Clock Line

 

[Chorus]

          C

There's a hole in the world

        G/B

Take me only a space

    Am

For something that's been waiting

  D               F

Until I turned my face

F

Until I turned my face

F

Until I turned my face
