Dm              Am 
So goodnight my dear 
            A#            
Hope you're feeling well 
             F            G 
Hope your're feeling very clear 
Dm               Am 
In this song and rhyme 
            A# 
Thoughts of changes that 
        F            G 
Keep ourselves intact 


    Dm                Am 
And yes, it's hard to fake 
        A# 
but I'm faltering 
       F                  G 
In the steps I'm about to take 
Dm             Am 
I am sure it's true 
        A#            F                G 
What is all for me is much the same to you  


Dm                           Am 
   If all the statues in the world 
                                  A# 
Would turn to flesh with teeth of pearl 
                             F           G 
Would they be kind enough to comfort me 
Dm                           Am 
   The setting sun is set in stone 
                      A# 
And it remains for me alone 
                    F            G 
To carve my own and set it free  


Instrumental Part: Dm Am A# F G (1x) 

Dm             Am 
So we wait and see 
         A# 
How this backward chapter reads 
   F                G 
In verse inadvertently 
Dm                       Am 
And it feels like fading light 
           A# 
But that's all that's left 
F                   G  
Only what's left is right 


Dm                           Am 
   If all the statues in the world 
                                  A# 
Would turn to flesh with teeth of pearl 
                             F           G 
Would they be kind enough to comfort me 
Dm                           Am 
   The setting sun is set in stone 
                      A# 
And it remains for me alone 
                    F            G 
To carve my own and set it free  

Spoken Verse:
 
Dm 
Jumping from a balloon 
          Am 
A carried aloft by a parachute in June 
A# 
Twisting round and round 
       F        G 
Well I hope the ground is what you find 


Dm                           Am 
   The setting sun is set in stone 
                      A# 
And it remains for me alone 
                    F            G 
To carve my own and set it free
