    [Intro]
D Gadd9 Aadd4 Aadd9     x2
 
 
[Verse 1]
D              Gadd9        Dmaj7/F#    A
Forgotten eyes are the ones which we lose
D               Gadd9       Dmaj7/F#      A
Forgotten hands are the ones which we choose
       D            Gadd9  Dmaj7/F#     A
To let go of, but it is no less a bruise
       D             Gadd9        Dmaj7/F#   A
On the collective arm keeping us high and gone
D               Gadd9      Dmaj7/F#    A
Forgotten dance is the one left at birth
D                Gadd9      Dmaj7/F#   A
Forgotten plants in the fossils of earth
            D               Gadd9    G/B         A
And they've long passed but they are no less the dirt
       D           Gadd9         Dmaj7/F#   A
Of the common soil keeping us dry and warm
 
 
[Chorus]
    D        Dmaj7 D7
The wound has no direction
                Gmaj7     D/F#          Em7         A7
Everybody needs a home and deserves protection, hmm-mm
 
 
[Verse 2]
D              Gadd9        Dmaj7/F#     A
Hollow-eyed on Eddie street no sirens to hear
     D                Gadd9   Dmaj7/F#      A
Just trash and soiled needles clawing the veneer
       D          Gadd9 Dmaj7/F#  A
And no crying but it is no less a tear
       D            Gadd9         Dmaj7/F#  A
On the common cheek with which we smile
D              Gadd9        Dmaj7/F#      A
Hollow-eyed on Eddie, is it they or is it I
      D              Gadd9         Dmaj7/F#        A
Is it me who is more hollow as I'm quickly passing by?
        D         Gadd9             G/B        A
And the poison is killing them, but then so am I
     D         Gadd9 Dmaj7/F#  A
As I turn away
 
 
[Chorus]
    D         Dmaj7 D7
The wound has no direction
               Gmaj7     D/F#          Em7          A7
Everybody needs a home and deserves protection, hmm-mm
 
 
[Outro]
D               Gadd9   Dmaj7/F#    A
Forgotten tongue is the language of love
D               Gadd9   Dmaj7/F#    A
Forgotten tongue is the language of love
D               Gadd9   Dmaj7/F#    A
Forgotten tongue is the language of love
D               Gadd9   Dmaj7/F#    A
Forgotten tongue
