Verso:
D#G#A#D#
Scared of losin' all the time
G#A#D#
He wrote it on a letter
G#A#D#G#A#
He was a friend of mine
D#G#A#D#
He heard you could see your future
G#A#D#
Inside a glass of water
G#A#D#D#G#A#
With ripples and the lines
G#A#A#A#A#
He asked 'Will I see heaven in mine
( D#G#A# ) (2x)
D#G#A#D#
Oh that is just the way it was,
G#A#D#
and nothing could be better,
G#A#D#D#G#A#
and nothing ever was.
D#G#A#D#
Oh he said you could see your future,
G#A#D#
inside a glass of water,
G#A#D#D#G#A#
With riddles and the rhymes
G#A#
'Will I see heaven in mine
A#A#A#
Oh, oh, oh
D#GmCmG#D#GmCmG#
Son don't ask,
D#GmCmG#D#GmCmG#
Neither how full or empty is your glass,
D#GmCmG#D#GmCmG#
Cling to the mast
D#GmCmA#G#A#G#
Spend your whole life living in your past
A#A#A#
Going nowhere fast
( D#G#A# ) (4x)
D#G#A#D#
So he wrote it on a wall
G#A#D#G#A#D#G#A#
that the hollowest of halos is no halo at all
D#G#A#D#G#A#D#
And television selling plastic figurines of leaders
G#A#D#G#A#
saying nothing at all
G#
And we chime 'Stars in heaven, align!'
A#A#A#
Oh, oh, oh
D#GmCmG#D#GmCmG#
Son don't ask,
D#GmCmG#D#GmCmG#
Neither how full or empty is your glass,
D#GmCmG#D#GmCmG#
Cling to the mast
D#GmCmA#G#A#G#
Spend your whole life living in your past
A#A#A#
Going nowhere fast
Ponte: G#A#CmFmG#A#A#4A#
( D#GmCmG# ) (4x)
( D#A#G#D# )
D#A#
And what I'll be drinking when we're done?
G#D#
Just glasses of water
