[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
