were played without a capo

Intro:
It sounds best if you just play the low E string to imitate the bass then as the song
progresses start playing the A as well then the D and just keep adding in the next strings
until you're playing the full chords
E
I can explain why I cannot give my heart back
Gm E
I left it with my Lady Blue
E
What was her name? She flew in, I caught her
Gm E
I was a fool to let her go
E Gm
She goes, she goes with her hollow bones
E
She goes
E
Every year she's back for the season
Gm E
I have to keep my windows closed
E
I couldn't shake what my mother warned me of
Gm E
Try to keep me safe between the pews
E
I stepped away, saw that Love was outside
Gm E
She wore a name, just a different one
They all say
P (Just palm mute and play along to the clapping and chains and stuff)
I'm sorry boy, you shouldn't fly with her kind
They found a way out of God's love
Bridge:
E - Em - E - Em
E Em E
She goes, shes goes with her hollow bones
Em
Keepin it pretty is gettin pretty old

When I know you're gonna climb back up again

Stay across the sea, but I know where you'll be
Am C
When I look around and round we go, we go around

Guitar solo:

Lady you're a lure, dancing on the bar
?
Oh-ho, you know you are
Em
You call em' to the door, hookem' in the jaw
?
Just for tonight, right?
Em
But maybe when you're bored with the easy caught
?
And when I can't afford another empty touch
11/13 9/11 7/9 6/8
Maybe then we'll board our ships with a couple of crashing hearts
