Reflections Are Protections

Tom: Bm

Bm                   Bb
Leaves, please be my light filter 
Am
Shine, make me a shelter
Cm                                             Gmaj *  F#maj
To hide; Cos this love makes you lose your sight
Bm                                   Bb
Now the search party's is on its way
                                Am
And the floodlight's on my face
                               Cm
All the shadows that I walk in
                                Gmaj *   F#maj
Are just my volatile second skin 


Bm             A
My reflections are protections
D                Gm
They will keep me from destruction
Bm            A
My directions are distractions
D                Gm
When you're ready come into the light


Bm    Bb


Bm                     Bb
Lines, design a pathway 
                               Am
Shine, cut out the dark shapes 
                                 Cm
To find, although I really tried 
                             Gmaj *   F#maj  
Only time is a lover's guide 
Bm                             Bb
And now the railings fall away 
                             Am
And the stencils draw a face 
                           Cm
Our outlines in the sunset
                              Gmaj *    F#maj
Are just a fragile silhouette 


Bm             A                       
My reflections are protections
D                 Gm 
They will keep me from destruction
Bm            A 
My directions are distractions 
D                Gm
When you're ready come into the light


Bm             A
My reflections are protections 
D                Gm
They will keep me from destruction 
Bm            A
My directions are distractions
D              Gm
If you leave me, I'll go back to hide
