C Em
The night's synthetic half-light
C Em
Rolls over your steering wheel
Am G
I'm closing my eyes just for a while
F G
(Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
C Em
The house, the first thing I see
C Em
Filled up with a family
Am G F
Surrounded by city and by sea
F G
Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
F G
Will you wake me when we're almost halfway
F G Am C
I don't wanna take this trip alone
C Em
A saint is chasing a snake
C Em Am
For everybody's sake
Am G
And so they go burning cars
F G
(Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
C Em
The mother prepares the weapon
C Em Am
Before handing it to son
G
Who watches his daddy runs
F G
(Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
F G
Will you wake me when we're almost halfway
F G Am C
I don't wanna take this trip alone
F Fm C
Cause I'd never reach my home
C Em
The flames wander through the city
C Em Am
And set fire to the sea
G F
Then out of the blaze appears a face
G
(Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
C Em
A girl with a look in her eyes
C Em Am
As if to say, "I despise
G F
Such poisonous family ties"
F G
(Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
C Em
But a poison as sweet as nectar
C Em
Could never forget or neglect her
Am G F
It carries her home and closes her eyes
F G
(Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
C Em
So she goes back under, swallows the water
C Em
Fixes her face like a good little daughter
Am G F
And follows her family, Who follow a saint and a snake
G
(Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
F G
Will you wake me when we're almost halfway
F G Am C
I don't wanna take this trip alone
F Fm C
Cause I'd never reach my home
C Em x2
F Fm C Em
No I'd never reach my home
F Fm C Em
No I'd never reach my home
C Em
My Home
C Em
(Can you call me when we're almost halfway)
(Wake me when we're almost halfway)
