Am 

[Verse 1]
   C      F                C             G
I don?t fly a banner above my head anymore. 
Am                    F             C           G
years have come between us, are you still beautiful? 
F        C                             C         F
could i ask forgiveness or is it too late for love? 
F          C    G              C          F
no recriminations have ever cleared anyone. 


[Chorus]
Am      C      F                     C
Lorne park, will you see me after dark? 
G                          C              F
will you bathe me in your blue suburban sky? 
Am         C            F                  C
I?ve come home with a trail of blood and bones, 
G                            C                F         Am
to your street lights hung like halos in the night. 


[Verse 2]
  Am    C      F                        C             G
Tonight: I was walking backwards to the house i was born, 
Am                   F           C              G
when the grass grew over where i once held my own. 
F        C                             C         F
could i ask forgiveness or is it too late for love? 
F          C    G              C          F
no recriminations have ever cleared anyone.  [Chorus]


[Bridge]
F                               C                         G
cut my wings and let me swing, childlike from your apron strings. 
F                               Am                   G
bury me in the backyards and throw the memories over. 
F                               C                 G
cut my wings and let me swing. could you offer anything 
F                                              C                        G
to a stubborn drunk with a serpent?s tongue, still teething on an infant thumb?
