Can a man hold fire against his chest without burning his clothes?

B  E  B  E

B                       Ebm
Try to hide down in the darkness
A                       E
Get accustomed to our shapes
B                               C#m
Rained in 'til next week at the earliest
E                             F#
Go through an old box full of betamax tapes

B E B E

Pull the blankets up to my neck
And the screen began to glow
I cried real tears when they beat Chuck Norris down
Wait here in the shadows 'til the shadows let me go

          G#m           F#             E
And treat each crushing moment like a gift
    B            F#        B
And wait for the fog to lift

Pretend I'm waiting for a notice
From someone somewhere far away
Sit here and break things while I'm waiting
As day gives way to day gives way to day gives way to day

But though I try to let the shadows mask my movements
They're never gonna hide me like they used to
I watch the delta force save everybody from that plane on fire
I was watching wishing i had not lost track of you

I treat each crushing moment like a gift
And wait for the fog to lift
