Lyrics
Lost in (C)skies of pow dered gold,
caught in (F)clouds of sil ver ropes,
show ered (C)by the emp ty hopes
as I (F)tum ble my down, fall ing fast to the ground.
I (Am)know
I’ll with er,
so peel a way the (F)bark,
’cause noth ing
grows when it is (Am)dark.
In spite of all my (G)fears, I can see it all so (F)clear,
I see it all so clear.
Whoa,
cov er your (G)crys tal (Am)eyes and feel the (G)tones that trem ble (F)down your (C)spine.
Whoa,
cov er your (G)crys tal (Am)eyes and let your (G)col ors bleed and (F)blend with (C)mine.
Mak ing (C)waves in pitch black sand;
feel the (F)salt dance on my hands.
Raw and (C)char coal col ored thighs
feel so (F)cold, and my skin feels so pa per the thin.
I (Am)know
I’ll with er,
so peel a way the (F)bark,
’cause noth ing
grows when it is (Am)dark.
In spite of all my (G)fears, I can see it all so (F)clear,
I see it all so clear.
Whoa,
cov er your (G)crys tal (Am)eyes and feel the (G)tones that trem ble (F)down your (C)spine.
Whoa,
cov er your (G)crys tal (Am)eyes and let your (G)col ors bleed and (F)blend with (C)mine.
Mak ing (C)mine.
But I’m o kay
in see through skin;
I’ve for giv en what
is with in,
’cause I’m in this house,
I’m in this home
all my
time.
Whoa, (F)blend with (C)mine.

- Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
- It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
- Can I change the key of "Crystals" to match my voice or capo?
