Jacob Lee - Thoughts Chords

[Intro]
 
D E F#m E A E D
 
[Verse 1]
D
I found a thought in my brain
E                                    F#m
Something I haven't seen in here for days
                           E
I asked before it escaped
                 A                D
What brought you here to this desolate place?
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
      E                                 F#m
Using blood for ink, I watch my stories fade
        E           A               D
Writing poetry with thoughts that I erased
      E                                  F#m
Every phrase that never saw the light of day
     E               A            D
Will become the only words I ever say
 
 
[Chorus]
                    E                       F#m
And I hope that somehow my soul will calm down
                    E       A            D
As I learn to pronounce the language I betrayed
                     E                        F#m
As I sweat from my brow and decipher these vowels
                   E
May I comprehend doubt
     A                  D
With thoughts that never stayed
 
 
[Verse 2]
Bm                        D
I felt my conscience awake
                          E     F#m
It seemed to scare all my ideas away
                          E
I asked if it would behave
         A                   D
I wish I knew how to make it obey
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
      E                                F#m
Using ink for blood, I write until I'm drained
        E          A             D
Leaving memories I hate upon the page
        E                                F#m
I don't think I'll ever see the light of day
     E                A              D
If I leave a piece of me to pave the way
 
 
[Chorus]
                    E                       F#m
And I hope that somehow my soul will calm down
                    E       A            D
As I learn to pronounce the language I betrayed
                     E                        F#m
As I sweat from my brow and decipher these vowels
                   E
May I comprehend doubt
     A                  D       E
With thoughts that never stayed
 
 
[Bridge]
 
And though they never stay
 
I will find a place
 
To sit and contemplate
           E                      D
Until I awaken all that I am, now
 
 
[Chorus]
                    Bm                       F#m
And I hope that somehow my soul will calm down
                    E       A            D
As I learn to pronounce the language I betrayed
                     E                        F#m
As I sweat from my brow and decipher these vowels
                   E
May I comprehend doubt
     A                  D       E D E A E D
With thoughts that never stayed
 
 
[Outro]
D                             E
I found a thought in my brain
                                     F#m
Something I haven't seen in here for days
                               E
I watched it walk through my veins
               A
Out through my fingertips into the page
