[Intro]
C  F
 
[Verse]
C                                F
Tell me all the things you would change
  C                              F
I don’t pretend to know what you want
         Am                      D9/F#
When you come around and spin my top
         F               E7
Time and again time and again
   C                   F
No fire where I lit my spark
  C                     F
I am not afraid of the dark
      Am                   D9/F#
Where your words devour my heart
              F
And put me to shame put me to shame
 
[Chorus]
    G                   Dm7       F         G       C
And your seven worlds collide whenever I am by your side
G                       Dm7      F           G     C    F C F
And dust from a distant sun will shower over every one
 
[Verse]
C                           F
Still so young to travel so far
C                          F
Old enough to know who you are
Am                       D9/F#
Wise enough to carry the scars
            F                       E7
Without any blame there’s no one to blame
     C                       F
It’s easy to forget what you learned
C                           F
Waiting for the thrill to return
Am                  D9/F#                 F
Feeling your desire burn and drawn to the flame
 
[Chorus]
    G                   Dm7       F         G       C
And your seven worlds collide whenever I am by your side
G                       Dm7      F           G      C
And dust from a distant sun will shower over every one
G                       Dm7      F           G     C
And dust from a distant sun will shower over every one
 
[Bridge]
        Am           C     F
And I’m lying on the table washed out in the flood
Am     C                 F
Like a Christian fearing vengeance from above
   Am              C             F
I don’t pretend to know what you want
            G    Dm7 F G C G Dm7 F G C
But I offer love
 
[Outro]
G              Dm7       F         G       C
Seven worlds collide whenever I am by your side
G                   Dm7      F           G     C
Dust from a distant sun will shower over every one
E7   F                              Am    E7  F
          and time slips by
