G D C D D
VERSE 1: (Picking)
G D C D D
Like a freeze dried rose
You will never be
What you were, what you were
To me in memory
G D C D D
But if I listen to the dark
You'll embrace me like a star
Envelope me
Envelope me
PRE-CHORUS:
G D C D D
If things get real for me down here
Promise to take me to before you went away
If only for a day
G D Cadd9 C D
If things get real for me down here
Promise to take me back to the tune we played
Before you went away
CHORUS
G D C D
And if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light
Yeah if I listen to the sound of white
VERSE 2:
G D C D D
You're my mystery, one mystery
My mystery, one mystery
G D C D D
My silence solidifies
Til that hollow void
Erases you, erases you
Til I can't feel at all
G D C D D
But if I never feel again
At least that nothingness will end
The painful dream
Of you and me
PRE-CHORUS: (x1)
CHORUS
And if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light
Yeah if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile and breathe your light
And if I listen to the sound of white
BRIDGE:
Em C G D
I knelt before
Some stranger's face
Well I never had the courage
Or belief to trust this place
Em C G D (pause on the D note)
And I dropped my head
Cos it felt like lead
And I'm sure I felt
Your fingers through my hair
(Pick the notes C and D in this short break)
CHORUS
And if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light
Yeah if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light
And if I listen to the sound of white
The sound of white
The sound of white
The sound of white
