[Intro]
Em
[Versetto]
C/G                  Em 
It's not the energy reeling 
         G             Em 
Nor the lines in your face 
         C/G           Em 
Nor the clouds on the ceiling 
         C/G           Em 
Nor the clouds in the space
[Versetto]
C/G                  Em 
It's not the phone on the table 
       G          Em 
Nor the bed in the earth 
      C/G         Em 
Nor the bed in the stable 
           C/G   Em 
Nor your stable words
[Versetto]
C/G              Em 
It's not the formless being 
       G           Em 
Nor the cry in the air 
        C/G      Em 
Nor the boy I'm seeing 
          C/G       Em 
With her long black hair
[Versetto]
C/G               Em 
It’s not the open weaving 
          G      Em 
Nor the furnace glow 
          C/G           Em 
Nor the blood of your bleeding 
         C/G      Em 
As you try to let go
[Ritornello]
C/G 
It's not the room 
C/G 
Not beginning 
Em 
Not the crowd 
Em 
Not winning 
G 
Not the planet not spinning 
C/G 
Not a ruse, not heat 
Em 
Not the fire lapping up the creek 
G 
Not food, not to eat
[Versetto]
C/G                   Em 
Not the meat of your thigh 
           G      Em 
Nor your spine tattoo 
           C/G     Em 
Nor your shimmery eye 
         C/G       Em 
Nor the wet of the dew  
C/G                  Em 
It's not the warm illusion 
          G          Em 
Nor the crack in the plate 
          C/G         Em 
Nor the breath of confusion 
          C/G         Em 
Nor the starkness of slate
[Ritornello]
C/G 
It's not the room 
C/G 
Not beginning 
Em 
Not the crowd 
Em 
Not winning 
G 
Not the planet not spinning 
C/G 
Not a ruse, not heat 
Em 
Not the fire lapping up the creek 
G 
Not food, not to eat
[Versetto]
C/G                   Em 
Not what you really wanted 
         G          Em 
Nor the mess in your purse 
        C/G           Em 
Nor the bed that is haunted 
          C/G         Em 
With the blanket of thirst 
C/G                   Em 
It's not the hunger revealing 
         G              Em 
Nor the ricochet in the cave 
         C/G          Em 
Nor the hand that is healing 
         C/G      Em 
Nor the nameless grave
[Ritornello]
C/G 
It's not the room 
C/G 
Not beginning 
Em 
Not the crowd 
Em 
Not winning 
G 
Not the planet not spinning 
C/G 
Not a ruse, not heat 
Em 
Not the fire lapping up the creek 
G 
Not food, not to eat
[Ritornello]
C/G 
Not to die 
C/G 
Not dying 
Em 
Not to laugh 
Em 
Not lying 
G 
Not the vacant wilderness vying
[Ritornello]
C/G 
Not the room 
C/G 
Not beginning 
Em 
Not the crowd 
Em 
Not winning 
G 
Not the planet not spinning
