Lord Huron - Secret of Life: chords

      Bm
I sit alone in the dark, and I try to remember
The words you spoke when you summoned the Ender
     Gmaj7
You chained my life to an ancient master
         Bm
Will the curse be reversed if I say it backwards?

What you crossed was a line at the edge of the void
And you can’t crawl back without making a choice
But then something escaped when you opened the gate
You cheated death and sealed your fate

Chorus:
Bm
Put on your new dress tonight
    Gmaj7                  A              Bm
And look to the west, the moon's in the sky
Bm
I wanna get at least that high
      Gmaj7               A            Bm
Wanna leave the Earth and all things behind
Bm
You told me you're never gonna die
       Gmaj7           A                Bm
How am I supposed to sleep through the night?
Bm
You showed me the secret of life
  Gmaj7              A           Bm
I can't forget that look in your eye

Been a long time gone, living out on the coast
It’s a long way back from the edge of the cosmos
Truths once known never come unknown
I learned that lesson lives ago

To die for good, it must be earned
The ways of death can never be learned
And the life I’ve lived is only dust
The darkness comes for all of us

Chorus:
Put on your new dress tonight
Have a look to the west, the moon’s in the sky
I wanna get at least that high
Wanna leave the Earth and all things behind
You told me you’re never gonna die
How am I supposed to sleep through the night?
You showed me the secret of life
I can’t forget that look in your eye
