[Verse 1]
G                 Em               
  That hue in the sky
                   C           
Just a glimpse of another life  
Am                         G                  Em    
  Are barely missed by some stupid collection
              C                 Bm                 D    D7                         
Life's random dominoes, if it'd only been more aggressive

[Verse 2]
D7/F#       G           Em           
  Oh and it burns me up
                              C               
My friends might as well have pissed in my cup
Am                         G              Em     
  Cause they knew and they never spoke up
               C                   Bm                   D    D7   D7/F#                      
You wanted the same as I did and I never will forgive them

[Chorus] played same as intro
Em                                  C   
  Is there something I'm failing to see
                       Em
A message in the stars
                          C  
Secrets lying hidden from me
                   C                       F       G
Not sure what they are, if it's keeping us apart?

[Verse 3]
        G                Em      C            
She had Wilson Pickett's best on 45
Am                           G            Em 
  And one night you know she gave me ride
                         C         
To my place and we were all alone
      Bm                       D  D7 D7/F#          
But I still neglected to mention
                                   
[Chorus]
Em                                  C   
  Is there something I'm failing to see
                       Em
A message in the stars
                          C  
Secrets lying hidden from me
                        Em                     
Not sure where they are
                       C                  C     
Tell me am I always to be, watching from afar
                            F           
'Cause your image breaks my heart

[Bridge]
G                C    
Now the waltz is over
G                C      
Passed into the clover
G                C    
Now the waltz is over
G                C      F
Passed into the clover

[Verse 4]                              
G                            Em
  Cause the day will finally come
                     C               Am 
When time will have rendered me numb
                G            Em
Maybe then I can put it down
                    C          Am
Let me linger for a moment now
                    G          Em 
Collect some details to recall
                    C            
Some part of life before it all
Bm               D      D7  D7/F#        
Fades into the darkness

[Chorus]
Em                                  C   
  Is there something I'm failing to see
                       Em
A message in the stars
                          C  
Secrets lying hidden from me
                        Em                     
Not sure where they are
                       C                  C     
Tell me am I always to be, watching from afar
                           F       G     
Cause your image breaks my heart
