Cicada Days Chords by Will Wood

[A#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ The greener grass grows where the wildfires fertilize with ashes of sparrows
pepper moths and [Em] butterflies
hosts of [G] trees and termites
[D] bloom in the
Beanstalk and if you get lightheaded when stay and in too fast is it from shaking out the weight of
phosphine then [Em] pass on deposits [G] on warm little rivers that [D] burst from our words
[A] And God knows [G] crying ain't gonna [D] change a thing
_ [A] She said take [G] care, but I take more [D] than I eat
[F#m] _ [D] [G] She said it just feels inhumane to [D] lose this much
[G] Cuz when you leave, you [Em] know, you [G] take more [D] than your love
_ [G] Just one week of cicada days we [D] lose in touch
None, [G] no, it just feels inhumane to [D] lose this much
_ _ [Em] _
_ [G] _ _ [D] Our nerves were braided under ceiling stars that were all blue in the dark
hanging over [Em] queen-sized
purple [G] waves of ancient [D] chemicals just whisper
_ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ [D]
Did you ever build with those endangered bones well the [F#m] ground was [D] soft enough to bury [Em] this now
[G] _ _ [D] And _ [A] then my sponsor said [G] do nothing [D] nothing works
_ [A] And then my doctor said [G] don't do that
[D] Every time
She [G] said it just feels inhumane
to [D] lose this much
_ [G] Cuz when you leave, you know, you take more [D] than your love
_ [G] The seasons of
Cicada days we can [D] make up
_ [Em] None, no, it just feels inhumane
[D] _ _ To [G] put on my rash face and walk in my [D] give up
_ [G] She told me leave alone, take more than [D] I give up
I'll pack my stuff
[G] You're at the end zone, face my gun
[D] Whatever you say, I'm a lord
I [Em] would be a star [G] if you would make me get a [D] lot
_ _ _ [Em] _
_ [G] _ _ [D] Oh
Coming back, it works, if you work, it's a work, if you're worth it, it won't, if you [Em] don't
One day at a [G] time
Tomorrow's too late, [D] it ain't new
_ _ _ _ _ [N] _
