Standard (EADGBE)

There's a man with a face like sorrow

 Now he's gone for good

 How could anyone hold you

 Without feeling good?

There's a shop where the thoughts that I borrow

 Swim around my head like snow

 How could anyone ignore you?

So play on, play on, play on

 The skies are made vermillion

 We're singing in a concrete star

 Oh we're all just castles in the cards

There's a hope in my blood when I see you

 I hear crashing drums

 How could any other language

 Hope to lead me on?

Little sparks in the puddles shoot like darts

 at all the things we might be, you and me

 and time itself is frozen

So play on, play on, play on

 The skies are made vermillion

 Killing all the saints tonight

 Oh play on, you shadows of the night

So play on, play on, play on

 The skies are made vermillion

 If all I was was all I felt

 Then the sun itself would start to melt

 Into waterfalls pouring down like snow

 Into waterfalls pouring down like snow

 Oh play on

So play on, play on, play on

 The skies are made vermillion

 Killing all the saints tonight

 Oh we're all just dancers in the night
