[Intro]
C    F     C     A 
 C     F  C      A  

[Verse 1]
C                     F       
  Swayin’ lights on a hillside,
  C                  G
   almost forgot my name,
C                       F          
  carside houses in the desert tide,
  C                   C
   they all look the same.
Am                   Am     
  And for a fleeting moment,
 G                          G
   there was terror in your eyes,
Am               Am     F
  a haunting revelation   
                C 
or a clever disguise.

[Chorus]
C                     G
  Just give me that ellipsis,
 there was never any harm from 
  Dm                  F          
a couple of dots, the time forgot, 
     G
to fill up the empty pages.

[Verse 2]
C                       
  We built a fire in the 
 F                  C       
kitty-litter mill,   the old 
               G
brick barely took the heat,
C                    F           
  took a lot just to get our fill,
  C                    C
 pile of hot coals on cold concrete.
Am              Am       G       
  At a glance I noticed,   there
                   G
 were tears in your eyes,
Am             Am      F     
  a total realization,   we’d 
                 C 
have to say goodbye.

[Chorus]
C                     G
  Just give me that ellipsis, 
there was never any harm from 
  Dm                  F          
a couple of dots, the time forgot,
     G
 to fill up the empty pages.
C                        G
  Please grant me that illusion 
of a different time, where the  
Dm             F                
stories there, written with care
     G
 and nothing ever changes.

[Interlude]
C       F    C   A 
 C       F   C    A  

[Verse 3]
C                F           
Could you really see yourself
 C                    G
   completely fadin’ away 
C                        
  or was it more like the 
   F        C             C
reflection   in a window pane? 
Am             Am     G         
  Not quite so vivid,   a couple 
             G
shadows overlapped 
Am                 Am    
  and everything behind you, 
 F                G
  looks pale and trapped.

[Bridge]
Am                 
  I’ve been lookin’
            Em
 ‘round the streets tonight 
G                  D
  with a melody so poor
Am                         Em
  and a collection of some words 
that rhyme,
G                     D     
  Help the drama to unfold.
            F    G

[Chorus]
C                     G
  Just give me that ellipsis,
 there was never any harm from 
  Dm                  F           
a couple of dots, the time forgot,
    G
 to fill up the empty pages.
C                        G
  Please grant me that illusion
 of a different time, where the  
Dm             F          
stories there, written with 
           G
care and nothing ever changes.

[End-Chorus]
C                     G
  Just give me that ellipsis,
 there was never any harm from 
  Dm                  F          
a couple of dots, the time forgot,
     G
 to fill up the empty pages.
C                        G
  Please grant me that illusion 
of a different time, where the  
Dm             F            
stories there, written with 
         G
care and nothing ever changes.

[Outro]
 F      G     F      G    Am
