Chords for CocoRosie - Promise (With Lyrics)

You _ shall not live _ a _ dream _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] Open hearted as a heart can be
Cause we're all a ruin like broken [Am] leaves
[Em] I give you me in oceans of tears
Up to my knees, stitched together like pants and sleeves
I carry this [B] carapace worn thin by he and she
He danced to dust, the dust came, swung along the highway
I found my way belligerent, following the stars of your [E] eyes
For all we see, [G] _ _
_ we tear up the day [Bm] away
It's [B] time to be, [G] home is time to be, home for me _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] And if you take me inside, then you give me a place to hide and cry
I'll bathe you in the crystal light, that sleeps between my thighs
Sometimes you fear [Am] that the angels sigh to the Lord
In heavens that this ain't right
[Em] But in this chalice you'll find the wine
Our hands hold bonfires burning bright
And the heart is dumb and the heart is blind
[B] But I think you'll find that the Lord [A] is kind
And I [Em] pray you'll cherish this
Tarnished [G] offering, burnt silver, brushed lavender, [Eb] offspring
[D] Promise _ [Bm] me, _ you'll [E] cherish [G] this
_ [Eb] _
_ _ [G] _ _ [Db] _ _ [G] Tarnished offering, _ _ _ _ burnt _ [E] _ silver, brushed lavender, offspring
The wind sprung from me, and first he kissed me
Helped me, quietly, a rush, [Em] perched on my back
Opened the desert, and diamonds passed
[A] Blinding and the tiny corpse [Gb] swallowed
Swung open the door, through the cage she swallowed
Swung the [Em] electric cannon, on the sun, eclipsed you
And tell my world not to run _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ Promise me, that [Db] you'll [G] cherish _ _ _ this
_ _ Tarnished _ _ _ offering, _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ [Em] _ _ burnt silver, _ _ brushed lavender, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ offspring
Oh, [G] _
_ _ promise [Eb] _ _ me
