Vers:

Bm D F#m
hiding out behind the birch
G (A)* Bm
and frozen lakes
D F#m
the view of things seems clearer here
G (A)* Bm
and my mistakes
D F#m
don't fill out the capacious bags
G (A)* Bm
that I dragged upstairs
D F#m
gives me time to grow a love
G (A)* Bm
where I had fear

D (2 takters optakt til bro)

Bro:

A
how long will you wait
Em
at the shady end of the slope
Bm
am I already late
A D
with my pyramid sized hopes

Omkvæd:

G Bm
still boy holds his breath
A D
'til something appears
G Bm A
all dumb all deaf all turned over
Bm (tror jeg)
to the wolves

Forlængede omkvæd:

G Bm
still boy holds his breath
A D
'til something appears
G Bm A
all dumb all deaf all turned over
G Bm
still boy waves his hand
A D
one time too many
Em Bm A
all dumb all deaf all turned over
Bm
to the wolves

*bassen spiller G og så A, så hvis man vil kan man spille A-dur.

Den er mangelfuld, men er sikker på at nogle meget mere lydhøre mennesker har et par kommentarer.
