Verse 1:
Hold on hold on, let me get the words out before I burst
There's no truth at all poking at the giant eyes of ancient gods
Cool heads have failed now it's time for me to have my turn
Kiss me kiss me, life is way too short to scream and shout.

Chorus:
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/snow-patrol/217783.html ]
Em7            Em6                      Am9  
Flashed up in my wildest dreams the dark red blood streams
          G6                       A5
Stretching out like vast cracked ice
Em7                  Em6                    Am9  
The veins of you the veins of me like great forest trees
     G6                       A5
Pushing through and on and in
Gliding like a satellite in the broken night
And when I wake you're there I'm saved
Your love is life piled tight and high set against the sky
That seems to balance on it's own

Verse 2:
Sing out sing out, the silence only eats us from the inside up
I meant no harm but I only get to say these words too late
Wake up wake up, dreaming only leads to more and more nightmares
Snap out of it you said it in a way that showed you really cared.

Chorus:

Flashed up in my wildest dreams the dark red blood streams
Stretching out like vast cracked ice
The veins of you the veins of me like great forest trees
Pushing through and on and in
Gliding like a satellite in the broken night
And when I wake you're there I'm saved
Your love is life piled tight and high set against the sky
That seems to balance on it's own

Outro:
Send your lifeboats out for me
Send your lifeboat out
