Somersault
I got you on tape


Verse:
------
Bm                F#m     Bm              F#m
And I never drank alcohol   and I never got high.

Bm                  F#m                E             Bm
It was the end of a hundred years that took me by surprise.

Bm                   F#m        Bm                F#m
What I thought to be dangerous,   on the verge of a smile

Bm                F#m               E            Bm
turning out to be nothing more than hiss and overdrive.


Chorus:
-------
            Bm                    F#m
And there's nothing or noone more powerful,

        E                                   Bm
and the light that shines upon you says the same.

       Bm                  F#m
When I wake up I’m doing a somersault

        E                                Bm
for the ones who never dared to speak my name.


Verse:
------
I'm shy and mysterious when I say my goodbyes,
when I part with the ones I’ve come to love throughout my life.
When the times are miraculous, when I stop to think twice,
when I sleep in the bushes next to where the treasure lies.


Chorus:
-------
With a devil in the words that you speak to me,
when there’s nothing left and we are at the end.
In the heavens you laugh at me secretly,
where it echoes over and over again.


Chorus:
-------
And there's nothing or noone more powerful,
and the light that shines upon you says the same.
When I wake up I’m doing a somersault
for the ones who never dared to speak my name.
