[Verse]
G G/D E/D Em7 C9
Let's get started, the faint and broken-hearted,
G G/D E/D Em7 C9
Hold it up, I've got something I cannot hide.
G G/D E/D Em7 C9
Worst painkiller, that all-in filler,
G G/D E/D Em7 C9
Apart and depar--ted look in my eyes.
[Pre Chorus]
G F#/D Em7
Sad, how far you ran, I'll search this land,
C9
Up through the clouds then back here.
G F#/D Em7 Pause
We could reignite like fireflies, like an atom bomb,
At all hours.
[Chorus]
G C9
I'm empty like the day after christmas,
Em7 C9
Swept beneath the wave of your goodbye.
G C9
You left me on the day after christmas,
Em7 C9
There's nothing left to say, and so goodnight.

[Verse II]
G G/D E/D Em7 C9
I will follow the trail to tomorrow,
G G/D E/D Em7 C9
With my loneliness with so---rrow all through the night.
G G/D E/D Em7 C9
Sons and daughters, mothers and their fathers.
G G/D E/D Em7 C9
Just the bridges and the waters their clues left behind.
[Pre Chorus]
G F#/D Em7
Sad, how far you ran, I'll search this land,
C9
Up through the clouds then back here.
G F#/D Em7 Pause
We could reignite like fireflies, like an atom bomb,
At all hours.
[Chorus]
G C9
I'm empty like the day after christmas,
Em7 C9
Swept beneath the wave of your goodbye.
G C9
You left me on the day after christmas,
Em7 C9
There's nothing left to say, and so goodnight.
