Through The Window

Written by Chris Cornell

Capo on 2nd fret
	  		

 
G  
The clouds that gathered turned to rain 
G 
The candles on your sill burned out 
Am 
The weather on your face 
Em        C              G 
Turned to match the mood outside 
G 
Reading through poems that you saved 
G 
That make the gloomy hours make sense 
Am 
Or do they lose their power 
Em       C            G 
With the yellowing of age 

C 
I saw you suffering 
G                              
Through a foggy window in the  
D 
Rain 
                            Em 
When you thought no one was watching, yeah 
C                           
Going through your memories 
G                       D 
Like so many prisons to escape 
                   Em 
And become someone else 
Am 
With another face 
C 
And another name 
G 
No more suffering 

G 
You sold the best of yourself out 
G 
On a chain of grey and white lies 
Am 
One syllable at a time 
Em                        C 
You should have made them pay 
        G 
A higher price 

C 
I saw you suffering 
G                             
Through the cracked and dirty  
       D 
Window pane, 

I was ashamed that i was  
Em 
Watching, yeah 
C 
Going through your imagination 
G                             
Looking for a life you could  
D 
Create 
                    Em 
And become somebody else, yeah 
Am 
With another face 
C 
With another name 
D 
No more suffering 

Am                       C                 
I wish that i could find a seed 
C                              G 
And plant a tree that grows so high 
G 
So that i could climb 

And harvest the ripe stars 
Am 
For you and i to drink 
C 
And spit the ashes from our mouths 
Em 
And put the grey back in the clouds 

And send them packing with our bags 
D 
Of old regrets and sorrows 

'cause they don't do a thing but drag us down 

So far down 

G 
The past is like a braided rope 
G 
Each moment tightly coiled inside 

C 
I saw you suffering 
G                               
Through the yellow window of a  
D 
train 
D              Em 
With everybody watching, yeah 
C 
Too tired for imagining  
G                                                                     
That you could ever love somebody  
D 
else 
D               Em 
From somewhere far away 
Am 
From another time 
C 
From another place 
Am 
With another life 
Em 
And another face 
D 
And another name 
D 
And another name 
G 
No more suffering
