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.
