It sounds better with palm muting and silencing of the top strings.
When I think of
fates worse than this
all I can think of
Is something you said
You said we were golden
bright like the sun
(bass notes A-G plays for the next two lines)
now I am stranded
knowing I'm not the one
(bass notes pattern A-B resumes)
An ocean of anger
flowing through me
bloodstained and broken
from what I've failed to see
Just like a snake charmer
you led me astray
living in distress
hoping help is on the way
Chorus
Dm Em
In the midst of a storm
Am G
searching for shelter
Dm Em
I came upon
Am G
one single feather
Dm Em
A halfhearted wish
Am G
for something better
Dm Em
Gracefully cursed
Am (repeat verse pattern)
I thirst
Attached to the soil
I'm dyed in the wool
there's iron in my blood
yet so vulnerable
But after I'm gone
once I finally leave
you will be left alone
to the wolves and the thieves
Chorus
Dm Em
In the midst of the storm
Am G
searching for shelter
Dm Em
I came upon
Am G
one single feather
Dm Em
I held on and wished
Am G
for something better
Dm Em
Gracefully cursed
Am (repeat verse pattern)
I thirst
