Gmaj7   Em    Am7     D6
You make no sound as folks gather ‘round
Em7   Am7        B7sus4 B7
Like shadow hounds
Gmaj7     Em  Am7     D6
Eyes seem unsound as folks gather ‘round
Em7   Am7        B7sus4
And please you aloud

Chorus:
B7    Gmaj7 Am9               Am7
And I now believe that no one asked
 Em7/B             Em        Am7                B7sus4
About your secret past, the pain to match your strength
B7    Gmaj7 Am9                Am7
And I now believe that no one thought
    Em7/B         Em        Am7                   B7sus4 B7
You had a lonely past, the pain and strengths so vast

From mellow seas
To houses on wheels
To slabs in West lands
Hand in hand
From yellow bills
To slabs in West lands
Like bones in your hands

B7    Am13   Em                                   D7
But I see a tree that's standing high among the shrubs
   Am13      Em                             D7
So only one hand may rest its palm upon my cheeks
       B7sus4  B7
The only one that I'll

Chorus:
To know why no one asked
About your secret past
The pain to match your strength
And I now believe that no one thought
You had a lonely past
And pain to match your vein

When it rains
