These are Ellipsis chords by Larry and His Flask on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.
[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.
