[Intro]
C Em F Dm
[Verse 1: Régine Chassagne]
C
You told us that
Em
We were too young
F
Now that night's closing in
Dm
And in the half light, we run
C
Lock us up safe
Em
And hide the key
F
But the night tears us loose
Dm
And in the half light, we're free
[Instrumental]
C Em F Dm
[Verse 2: Win Butler, Win Butler & Régine Chassagne]
C
Strange how the half light
Em
Can make a place new
F
You can't recognize me
Dm
And I can't recognize you
C
We run through these streets
Em
That we know so well
F
And the houses hide so much
Dm
But in the half light
G
None of us can tell
C
They hide the ocean in a shell
G C G
The ocean in a shell
[Verse 3: Win Butler & Régine Chassagne]
F
Our heads are just houses
Dm
Without enough windows
F
You say you hear human voices
G C
But they're only echoes
G C
They're only echoes
G C
They're only echoes
G C
Only echoes
[Instrumental]
C Em
[Outro]
C Em
We are not asleep, we are in the streets
C Em
We are not asleep, we are in the streets
C Em C
We are not asleep, we are in the streets
