[Verse]
G
This is not an escape
                  C                            G         Em
But I don't know how to hold somebody without losing my grip
           G
You'll say I was bound to leave
               C
Since I first stepped across your borders
         G                 Em
Since I crawled into your skin

                     D              G
Thought I heard you whisper in the dark
                         C
That you knew where the light would be
 Em                 D                 G
Thought I saw your shape against the black
                    C
Thought I felt you moving beside me

            D                G                     C
We are not alone and we are more alone than we've ever been
                 D
So hurry up and lose me
 G                    Em
Hurry up and find me, again

G Em (x2)

         G
So I'll pass the lumber mills
               Em                 C
I'll pass the coal mines and the parks
         G            Em
And the dried up oil fields
             C               G                                    Em
I'll pass a thousand lonely pines that bend the backs against the sun
            C                G                                Em
But I'll mistake the station birds for the sound of my phone ringing

                      D             G
Thought I heard you whisper in the dark
                         C
That you knew where the light would be
 Em                   D               G
Don't wait for me to walk a straight line
              C
You can only hold your breath so long

             D              G                      C
We are not alone and we are more alone than we've ever been
                 D
So hurry up and lose me
  G                    Em
Hurry up and find me, again

G Em (x2)

         G
But I am no less bound to you
             Em                C
Than when I crossed into your silence
        G             Em
When I held your solitude
               G
But you never liked it

When I'd play dead
        Em               C               G                 Em
And you wondered why my love songs are always the grieving kind
       C             G                              Em
Why I wander off to search for my reflection in the crowd

C                  Em
Oh, forget I said love
     G                         C
And also, don't forget I said love
            D                G                     C
We are not alone and we are more alone than we've ever been
                 D
So hurry up and lose me
 G                   Em
Hurry up and find me again
