      You take the air in

You take the whole room in

Ya hold it for a time

Hold it in your heart like amber

      You take the night in

You take the consequences

Measuring your life

Not by what is safe to wager

Chorus:

D               Bm
  Smile there's no regrets
D             Bm
  Layers wash through our hands
             G                  Em7
And then you never see tomorrow come
    G                     Em7
You only feel the wake of it
D               Bm
  Smile there's no release
D               Bm
  This blood of life won't cease
             G                Em7
To leave you lying in a wild amazement
G                      Em7
Reeling in the wake of it

Ah

Figure 1: x2

Verse 3:

Dmaj7
      You take the grandeur

And I'll take to wondering
    G           Em7
The error of my ways
G
I could ponder this forever
