[C] [G]
[C] [G]
[Am] [F]
[G] [C]
There's a voice that [G] pulls me stumbling through a [Am] symphony
And [F] the less of [C] it I need, the more [G] I get
Till [C] I'm swept up by the shape of [Am] all the centuries
Like an echo [G] in the chambers of [C] my chest
I think she fears [G] I'll be a servant [Am] to my history
Or [F] worse, a slate that someone else has [G] misplaced
So [C] I try too [G] hard to kill what's out [Am] to kill me
[F] Till I'm blind and [G] hiding in the [C] lion's mouth
And the words she aches to hear pour through my canyon
And they're singing in the caverns of [G] my lips
And though I do my best to try to [Am] understand them
They [F] only follow me like [G] vultures in the [C] end
I
[G] [Am]
[F] [C]
[G]
[C] [G] [Am]
[F]
[G] [C]
once read that I [G] should write something [A] worth reading
[Am] Or [F] I should do [C] something worth [G] writing about
And as my [C] ears, they buzz [G] like bees [Am] upon the ceiling
I start to pour [G] a little more than I'm allowed
[C]
I said our hearts know [G] deeper seasons than [Am] our memories
She [F] said this harvest might [C] sustain us for [G] a year
And of all the thousand ways the world could [Am] tempt me
I never [F] met a better fighter than [C] her fear
So as I try to [G] breathe the air that she [C] is breathing
[F] We dance a [D] lightless dance upon [G] my floor
I
[G]
[C] am burning [G] to tell her she's all [Am] I'm needing
But I'm drowned out [G] by all the noise outside the [C] door
Carried by the current [Am] of the morning
[F] Miles below the surface of the dawn
[G]
[C] This is not the place that I [Am] was born in
But that [F] doesn't mean it's [G] not the place where I belong
[C]
