[C]
My
[Gm] [C]
[Bb]
[Db]
skull [F] is my [D] cathedra [E] [Eb] Where this matrimor takes [E] place
[Eb] When I [C]
was [G] a girl she [Gm] sang for me [Eb] In falsetto, [Gm] lullabies with [A] sincerity
[Am] I thank her for her [A] [Gm]
[A] integrity
My [F] ancestors' clock [Am] is ticking Her [Bb] once
[C] vibrant [A] [Fm] rebellion [C] is [G]
fading

at [A] all times
[C]
My [G] ancestress has left all money [A]
Her [Am] [G]
[Gm] pulsating skin [Am] rebelling
The [G] doctors she [Gm]

I [C] don't [Am] have that story [Bb] in [Am] my mind
When [Bb]

[A] priest [Eb]
I [A]
why [Am] will [G]
[A] she [Gm] be rested
[A]
It [C] revealed [G]
her [Gm]
[B] resilience And then [Eb] it [G] did die

eyes [Bb] But hear [C] with your [A] [Gm] mother's
[Bb] There's fear of [C]
being [A] absorbed [F]
[Bb] [C] Above the other
[A] Why [F]
[C] now we share the same flesh As much as I try to [G] escape it
