Funeral for a Friend - Owls (Are Watching)

[Intro]

G D C
Open windows above the sill, flowers bloom to make the air less chilled
Em D
Condescending statements of people in their cars
G D
Waiting for the radio to save their lives, are you watching
C Em D
Tell me are you watching, are you listening at all?

[Verse]

Em
If it’s better protected the sights unseen
Em
Dark skies surround you whatever that means
C D Bm
And there’s a light on and no one’s home
C
Tell me did you leave the light on?
D Bm
There’s a light on and no-one is home
C G
Tell me did you leave the light on?

[Chorus]

G
Owls in the night skies watching us pass by
G/B C Em D
Like ships in the night, covered in silver light
G
Owls in the night skies watching us pass by
C Em D
Like ships in the night, covered in silver light

[Verse 2]

Em
Are they waiting to take it away from me?
Em
Eyes burn like matches and gasoline
C D Bm
And there’s a light on and no one’s home
C
Tell me did you leave the light on?
D Bm
There’s a light on and no-one is home
C G
Tell me did you leave the light on?

[Chorus 2]

G
Owls in the night skies watching us pass by
G/B C Em D
Like ships in the night, covered in silver light
G
Owls in the night skies watching us pass by
C Em D
Like ships in the night, covered in silver light

[Chorus 3]

G
Owls in the night skies watching us pass by
G/B C Em D
Like ships in the night, covered in silver light
G
Waiting for the radio to save our lives are you watching
C Em D
Tell me are you watching are you listening at all
