Intro: G
G
Give us the ground,
for we are weightless,
Em D
only found by the wrestle of leaves;
Em D C Gsus
under foot crunch the branch that alone will leave.
G
G
In that iron guard,
clad in a softer sound,
Em
a bed made of all around,
D
I won't know your keenness,
Em D C
and I cannot tell what you feel when youre next to me,
Gsus Em D C G
no I cannot tell what you feel when youre next to me,
Em
and let it swing towards,
D
scrape off your blood rewards,
C Gsus
and scatter your arm's awards.
Em
and let it swing towards,
D
scrape off your blood rewards,
C Gsus
and scatter your arm's awards.
G
Kiss their mouths,
lead them out;
Em
with a truncheon fist you let them down,
D
and give them comfort to be revealed.
Em D
Know that you can't feel less
C G
than you do now.
G
Over head fallen,
and clutch onto stolen;
Em
high home,
D
we finally die,
Em
and when we don't
D C G
it’s a lie.
Em
and let it swing towards,
D
scrape off your blood rewards,
C Gsus
and scatter your arm's awards.
Em
and let it swing towards,
D
scrape off your blood rewards,
C Gsus
and scatter your arm's awards.
G D C Gsus
Sides will shake and fall,
G D C Gsus
hardly enough at all,
G D C Gsus
smiles will wake in part
G D C Gsus
and time will taller grow.
Em D C
Forfeits taken down,
Gsus Em D C
painted eyelids for a better view,
Em
haven in your softness
D
and a neck snapped by a pillow,
C
stiller than I wanted.
Gsus Em
Taken by all that you know,
D
live up until you are old
C
and give up until I am sold,
Em D C
until home.
