Gm  F  Em  Dm

[Verse 1]
  C                      Csus4 C
Between last breaths and first regrets
    C                    Csus4   C
The days dragged on like cigarettes
       C                    Csus4  C
In the distance martyrs and martinets
Gm     F                Em         Dm
Dally, dancing with the empty silhouettes of threats

[Verse 2]
    C                Csus4  C
So, where but heaven does love end
    C                   Csus4  C
And where on earth does it begin
     C               Csus4  C     Gm
It's not the kind of love that is pinned
       F        Em              G
Like a medal or presses pennies in a tin

[Chorus]
F              G               F             C
There is hope, and after that, there is only faith
F           C
Love like a wraith
Dm            G
Never made me afraid
Fm                        C
Consoled as I was by that shade

[Post-Chorus]
F            C     G      C
Here lie the roses in the ashes
F           C    G         C
Deep as the barnacles that cling
F           C         G            C    Dm      G
Just like a lace that runs through everyone and everything

[Verse 3]
C             Csus4   C
In that other still forever
C              Csus4    C
In that time before the past
  C                Csus4 C
I told myself we'd be together
Gm      F               Em          G
Can you promise me that it will be eternally?

[Chorus]
F              G               F             C
There is hope, and after that, there is only faith
F           C
Love like a wraith
Dm            G
Never made me afraid
Fm
Consoled as I was

[Outro]
N.C.
Consoled as I was
   F                      C    F   C
Consoled as I was by that shade
