This transcription of this song was taken from a live acoustic version in which Billy plays by himself and sings. The album version of the song is quite different and has much less guitar in it.

Em Am Em
The lights came on fast
Em Am Em
Lost in motorcrash
Em Am Em
Gone in a flash unreal
Em Am Em
But you knew all along

C
You laugh the light
Em
I sing the songs
C D
To watch you numb

N/c Bm Am Em
I saw you there
Bm Am Em
You were on your way
Bm Am D
You held the rain
Bm Am Em
And for the first time, heaven seemed insane
Bm Am Em
'Cause heaven is to blame
Bm Am Em
For taking you away

Em Am
And do you know the way that I can
D Em
Do you know the way that I can't lose?
Em Am
And do you know the things that I can
D Em
Do you know the things that I can do?

Em Am C
Where is your heart?
D C Em
Where is your heart gone to?
Em Am
Tear me apart
D Em
Tear me apart from you

C
You laugh the light
Em
I cry the wound
C D
In gray afternoons


I saw you there
You were on your way
You held the rain
And for the first time, heaven seemed insane
For taking you away
'Cause heaven is to blame
For taking you away

Em Am Em
The lights came to pass
Em Am Em
Dead opera motorcrash
Em Am Em
Gone in a flash unreal
Bm Am Em
In nitrous overcast

And do you know the way that I can
Do you know the way that I can't lose?
And do you know the things that I can
Do you know the things that I can't lose?

Em Am
Tear me apart
C Em
Tear me apart from you
Em Am
Where is your heart?
C Em
Where is your heart run to?
