[E]
[Dbm]
[Eb]
As [Abm]
you danced around the [E] golden calf, your spinning gown showed [Dbm] all the hungry boys in
town what [Eb] they'd missed.
[Abm] They thought that you'd found the [E] echoes of that holy sound which [Dbm] God had spat into the
ground that [Eb] he had kissed.
Your [Abm] soul was tearing and a thread was [E] dragged behind you as you fled [Dbm] into the shadows of
the bed in [Eb] which you hid.
And [Abm] as the whispers spread, [E] their color darkened to a red [Dbm] that stained all you ever said [Eb] with
what you did.
[B] And I met you one night through [A] a trick of the light, [Dbm] a thousand light pounds of [B] gold.
I held your face [A] in my hands and I traced [Dbm] every line you never wanted [B] to show.
Cause [A] I know we [Dbm]
are the children [B]
that never let [A] go.
[Dbm] We are the children [B] that never let [A] go.
[E]
[Abm]
As they poured across the [E] borders of your dress, they crossed [Dbm] into the layer of the
frost [Eb] around your name.
And [Abm] every one of them was lost between [E] the hammer and the cross [Dbm] that you labeled and
then tossed [Eb] into the flame.
You know [Abm] I never meant to try to [E] teach you anything, but my [Dbm] commandment smashed when
I collided [Eb] with your hips.
[Abm] And who was I to dare to love [E] you or to interfere with all [Dbm] the scars that you declared across [Eb] your lips?
And I met you one day through [A] a crack in the pavement, [Dbm] a thousand silences [B]
old.
I pulled your chest to my [A]
hand and I pressed every [Dbm] crack that was covered in snow.
Cause [A] I know we [Dbm]
are the children [B] that never let [A] go.
[Dbm] We are the children [B] that never let [A] go.
[Dbm] We are the children [B] that never [A] let go.
[E]
[Abm] I was forced to scavenge [E] through the rotting crates and [Dbm] salvage that was broken down and
ravaged [Eb] by the sea.
[Abm] And as we stepped outside we [E] saw the calf and then a tide of [Dbm] moonlight hit its golden hide.
[Eb] And it was me.
[Abm]
