[Intro]
C/A C


[Verse 1]
  C/A              C
To care, or not to care
       C/A
To be there
                     C
In the distant and uncertain
        C/A
To be aware
 C
In an old Iberian hotel room
    C/A
That the devil
 C
Is not behind the curtain
         C/A
She said walk in small steps
 C
And fear floating
        C/A
We made a pact
 C
A certain approaching
            C/A
Leaned on the sky
 C
The smoking cigarette
       C/A
Said it's late
 C
You should be going
           C/A
The wind is howling
 C
The house is showing


[Chorus 1]
C
Boat to an island on the wall
C
Hand striking in slow motion
C
Future singing in the field
C
Shooting season's open


[Verse 2]
 C
To care, or not care
 C/A
To be aware
                  C
In your absence an angel chose this for you


[Bridge]
    C/A
You're supposed to laugh
 C
Tell your fortune to the sailor
         C/A
This is the black mountain pass
 C
These hours the sun shines to moonlight, black


[Chorus 2]
 C                     G
Boat to an island on the wall
 C                      G
A hand striking in slow motion
 C/A                   G
Future singing in the field
 C/A              G
Shooting season's open
 C/A                      G
Boat to an island on the wall
 C/A                    G
A hand striking in slow motion
 C/A            G
Lied too bad, too long
 C                G
Shooting season's open
