Intro
Gm

Verse 1
GmI Know Who You Are Old Man Keep Running
I CmCaught Your Trail As You Left The Pines
GmOut Into The Fields Where You Couldn’t Hide Nowhere
Just A CmThin Stitch Up Against The Rising Line
And FUp Through The Blue I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling
FUp Through The Blue I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling

Cm

GmI Know Who You Are Old Man Keep Running
I CmTracked You Down By The Look In The Eyes
Of A GmThousand Gone Faces Pressed Against Their Windows
Horses CmHiding In The Willows 'Til The Storm Passed By
And A FFine Gray Dust Seemed To Settle On The Future
FFine Gray Dust Seemed To Settle In Between

Your CmHat And The Dapple Of My Appaloosa
The CmOnly Living Things That I Could See
FUp Through The Blue, I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling
FUp Through The Blue, I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling

Cm

Verse 2
GmI Know Who You Are Old Man Keep Running
I CmWalked Across The Bottom Of The Lake Below
Your GmBoat And Did You Know That When You Landed I Was Watching?
As The CmSky Turned Dark As The Eyes Of A Foal
And I’ll FKnow You By The Shift Of The Wind In The Cobwebs
The FSawdust Swirls In The Fins Of The Bullheads

The CmCraters That You Made When You Lay Down Dreaming
CmStrange Constellations That You Gave New Meaning
By The FTeeth Marks Made On Bones Of The Ice Age
The FSmell Of The Cinder Burning Slow In Your RibCmcageF​
FListen In The Distance And You'll Hear My Shadow
CmFootsteps Soft As The Tread Of An Echo
FUp Through The Blue I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling
FUp Through The Blue I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling

Cm  (Stars Were Tumbling)

Gm

Verse 3
And The FGround Will Open Up Into A Mouth Below Us
The FMouth Will Open Up Into The Empty Sky
And The CmWhistle As We Hurtle Through The Halls Of Onyx
The CmOnly Sound Around Us As We Go By
And I’ll FFollow You Out Through The Wells Of Charcoal
FMoonlit Stones Around The Cones Of A Black Hole

CmFields Where Grow The Ever And Forever
CmTessellated Blooms With The Voids At Their Centers
The FMillion Rooms, In A Bead Of Luminescence
The FFilaments, On The Looms Of Dimension
The CmPillars Of Creation Where They Make The Planets
The CmBillion Tiny Teeth That Tear The Charge From Your Atoms

In A FTrillion Tiny Bites They’ll Eat The Meat From The Pearl
And FThrow Your Soul Away A Cold Grey Little World
And CmNothing That Is Hidden Will Be Revealed
CmNothing That Is Hidden Will Be Revealed
FNothing That Is Hidden Will Be Revealed
FNothing That Is Hidden Will Be Revealed
