Intro - Instru verse x 1
Em D G Am Em D C C G Am C C C C

Em D G Am
A thought, on the brink, of the time, it takes to flow,
Em D C
through the heart, through the head, in your veins, it contains
G Am C
Through the heart in the head in your veins it contains

What you do, next do right, bear it all, in your mind,
Cos your time, has been taken, like the ink that marked your heart
Cos your time has been taken as it slow-flowed through your heart

D Am7
T A nine you’re all fine, you’re on notice
D
T A nine it’s not always hard to breathe
Am7
If you leave where will you go, oh will they notice
C D
T A nine do what you have to, to believe

Instrumental verse x 1

Through your head, in your veins, a touch of salt,
On your lips, as you miss the breath between,
What you did and what you took
As you miss the breath between,
What you did and what you took

Took to flow, ask around, is it better on low ground
Where we sat, & we thought, how to live, just to live
Where we sat, & thought, how to live or stay alive

T A nine, you can reflect upon your world view
T A nine, though from below it’s hard to see
Now you’ve left, you have been gone, where will you run to
T A nine do what you have to, to believe
D C C Eb Eb Em instrumental x 2
T A ni….ine T A ni…ine T A ni…ine
