The Staves - The Shining Chords

[Intro]
G Bm G F#m
G Bm G Bm

[Verse 1]
G*             Bm*                       G*
Falling out of nowhere, calling out your number
                 Bm*                         G*
Books beside the bed just where you lay your head
                Bm*              G
Man behind the counter, drinking limonata
                Bm*            Dsus      F
Looks me in the eye before he turns away


[Chorus]
           C           Am            F
Time makes every man a mess, so who's safe?
                 Am                         Dm
Knocking on the same old doors and running away
         C             Am
Climbing up the fire escape
       Gm                  A          Bm   Dmaj7  G*
And I carry my mistakes so well, oh well


[Verse 2]
                Bm*                        G*
Cigarettes and coffee, is all you have to give me
                Bm*              G*
Sitting in the lobby on my own
                     Bm*                     G*
Come and look right at me, say what you have for me
             Bm*                             G*
Faces in the curtains watching every move we make
                 Bm*                        Em
Speaking to the red phone, thinking of the ride home
                Dsus              Bm           G
Standing in the shower with the water running cold
                   Bm                             Em       Bm*  Dsus
Sit and watch The Shining, with just the kitchen light on


[Chorus]
      F              C           Am            F
They say, time makes every man a mess, so who's safe?
                 Am                         Dm
Knocking on the same old doors and running away
         C           Am
Climbing up the fire escape
          Gm                     A
'Cause I have nowhere to run, oh no


[Outro]
      Bm   Dmaj7  G*
Oooh, no


[Instrumental]
G*  Bm*  G*  Bm*
G*  Bm*  G*  Bm*  Dsus


   F  C  Am  F
Ohhhh
   Am   Dm   C  Am...
Ohhhhh
