E
Yes or no?
What is truth
       G#m
But a dirty black cloud coming out of the blue?
E
I was wrong
I was right
       G#m
I'm a blood moon born in the dead of night

E
Break my bones
I don't care
G#m
All I ever wanted was a body to share
 E
Heart's gone cold
Brush ran dry
G#m
Satellite searching for a sign of life
      E G#m E G#m
Like you

    C#m
Somewhere?
          E
Are you there?

Chorus:
B                  E
The tears in your eyes
               B
Someday will dry
                  E
We fight for our lives
                           C#m
'Cause everything's on the line
      E  G#m
This time

Listen close
I can't hide
I'm a page torn from a broken spine
Sun gets low
I get high
Satellite searching for a sign of life
Like you

Somewhere?
Are you there?

Chorus

Are you there?
Are you there?

Chorus

The tears in your eyes
Someday will dry
We fight for our lives
'Cause everything's on the line

Yes or no?
What is truth
But a dirty black cloud coming out of the blue
I was wrong
I was right
I'm a blood moon born in the dead of night
