Ab6 C? Ab6 C? Pale September, I wore the time like a dress that year Ab6 C? Ab6 C? The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin Ab6 C? Ab6 C? But as the embers of the summer lost their breath and disappeared Ab6 C? Ab6 C? My heart went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within Fdim7 Fdim7/Db But then he rose, brilliant as the moon in full Fdim7 Fdim7/Db And sank in the burrows of my keep F# Ab4 Ebm7 F# Ab4 Ebm7 And all my armor falling down, in a pile at my feet F# Ab4 Ebm7 Ab4 F# Ab4 Ebm7 And my winter giving way to warm , as I'm singing him to sleep C? Ab6 C? Ab6 C? Ab6 C? Ab6 C? Ab6 C? Ab6 C? He goes along just as a water lily Ab6 C? Ab6 C? Gentle on the surface of his thoughts his body floats Ab6 C? Ab6 C? Unweighed down by passion or intensity Ab6 C? Ab6 C? Yet unaware of the depth upon which he coasts Fdim7 Fdim7/Db And he finds a home in me Fdim7 Fdim7/Db For what misfortune sows, he knows my touch will reap F# Ab4 Ebm7 F# Ab4 Ebm7 And all my armor falling down, in a pile at my feet F# Ab4 Ebm7 Ab4 F# Ab4 Ebm7 And my winter giving way to warm , as I'm singing him to sleep Fdim7 Fdim7/Db Fdim7 Fdim7/Db F# Ab4 Ebm7 F# Ab4 Ebm7 All my armor falling down, in a pile at my feet F# Ab4 Ebm7 Ab4 F# Ab4 Ebm7 And my winter giving way to warm , as I'm singing him to sleep F# Ab4 Ebm7 F# Ab4 Ebm7 All my armor falling down, in a pile at my feet F# Ab4 Ebm7 Ab4 F# Ab4 Ebm7 And my winter giving way to warm , as I'm singing him to sleep Gb Ab4 Ebm7...
