F C Bb


[Verse 1]
F
Clothes
       C    Bb   F
That cover your skin
     C    Bb   F
The grace in the chaos
        C    Bb   F
That was hidden within
     C    Bb   F
The grains of salt
     C    Bb   F
For every lie I told
          C    Bb   F
That was ripped from the stitches
      C    Bb   F         F/F#
And torn from the folds


[Chorus]
Gm
Whilst you were sleeping
F
I sat in the dark
C
With all my offenses
     Dm             D
The creases on my heart
 Gm
And all these bad feelings
       F
From my teenage boy brain
        Gm
And for all of my offences
 Dm             D          Gm    Am   F
I will count the grains of salt
Gm    Am   F
Salt


[Verse 2]
               F
If walls could whisper
           C    Bb   F
They would whsiper to me
    C    Bb   F
"We'll keep you sheltered, my dear
        C    Bb   F
But we can't set you free"
    C    Bb   F
So dance with your demons
   C    Bb   F
In Television light
 C    Bb   F
If you must tell her
              C    Bb   F         F#
Then you better tell her tonight


[Chorus]
    Gm
And whilst you were sleeping
F
I sat in the dark
     C
With all of my offences
    Dm             D
The creases on my heart
    Gm
And all these bad feelings
       F
From my teenage boy brain
        C
And for all of my offences
   Dm     D                 Bb
I will count the grains of salt


[Post-Chorus]
C                    F F/F#
For all the lies I told
                     Gm
Count the grains of salt
     C              Dm    D
For all the lies I told
                     Gm
Count the grains of salt
     C              Dm    D
For all the lies I told
                     Gm
Count the grains of salt
      C              Dm    D
For all the lies I told
                    Gm    F     Bb
Count the grains of salt


[Outro]
  F
Saaaaaalllltttttt
     C    Bb   F
That covers your skin
