[Verse 1: Moses Sumney]
      D#                                 E
You'd like to stay long, though you're a wanderin' soul
           D#                      E
And you've got to move on from the squandered soil
         D#
When you get what you came here for
         E
Will you leave in the dead of night?
       D#
In the hall is a wall of horrors
           E
You're the yonder light
 
 
[Refrain: Moses Sumney]
      D#                E
Can't return the sacred time you steal
    D#               E
The fact betrays the way you feel
        D#               E
And the sight delays the right to heal
    D#             E
You decide to stay long
 
 
[Pre-Chorus: James Blake & Moses Sumney]
         D#m          C#m
I didn't plan to stay long
         B            G#m
I didn't plan to stay long (Stay long)
         D#m          C#m
I didn't plan to stay long
         B            G#m
I didn't plan to stay long (Stay long)
         D#m        C#m            B         G#m
In the snake pit so long, I've got posters up (Stay long)
      D#                             C#m          E
Been defending so long, I don't know how to stop (Long)
 
 
[Chorus: James Blake]
D#                        E
Heart, tell them what you came for
D#                        E
Heart, tell them what you came for
D#                           E
Heart, tell them what you've been daydreamin' about
D#                 E
What the evening's about to
 
 
[Refrain: Moses Sumney]
      D#                E
Can't return the sacred time you steal
    D#               E
The fact betrays the way you feel
        D#               E
And the sight delays the right to heal
    D#             E
You decide to stay long

I didn't plan to stay long (Stay long)
         D#m          C#m
I didn't plan to stay long
         B            G#m
I didn't plan to stay long (Stay long)
         D#m        C#m            B         G#m
In the snake pit so long, I've got posters up (Stay long)
      D#                             C#m          E
Been defending so long, I don't know how to stop (Long)
 
I'm so afraid

Heart, tell them what you came for
D#                           E
Heart, tell them what you've been daydreamin' about
D#                 E
What the evening's about to

to see the lyrics Tell Them
                  In life, just belong, though you're a wanderin' soul
And you got to move on from the squandered soil
When you get what you came here for
Will you leave in the dead of night?
In the heart is a wall of horrors
You're the undenied

Can't return the sacred time you steal
A fact betrays the way you feel
And the sight delays the right to heal
You decide to stay long

I didn't plan to stay long
I didn't plan to stay long (stay long)
I didn't plan to stay long
I didn't plan to stay long (stay long)
In the snake pit so long
I've got posters up (stay long)
Been defending so long
I don't know how to stop

Heart, tell them what you came for
Heart, tell them what you came for
Heart, tell them what you've been daydreamin' about
What the evening's about to you

Can't return the sacred time you steal
A fact betrays the way you feel
And the sight delays the right to heal
You decide to stay long

I didn't plan to stay long
I didn't plan to stay long (stay long)
I didn't plan to stay long
I didn't plan to stay long (stay long)
In the snake pit so long
I've got posters up (stay long)
I've been defending so long
I don't know how to stop
I'm so afraid

Tell them what you came for
Heart, tell them what you came for
Heart, tell them what you've been daydreamin' about
What the evening's about to you

Ah, ah
Ah
Ah, ah
Tell them what you came here for (ah, ah)
Oh, oh, oh, stay long
Oh, oh, oh, stay long
Oh, oh, oh, stay long
Oh-oh-oh-oh, long
