Sarasvati chords by Mary Lambert

Chords with lyrics

A augmentedA       DbDb
  You are Sanskrit on my skin.
    F# minorF#m      D MajorD       E MajorE
Peel me open til I am nothing but a whisper.
A augmentedA               DbDb
 Name yourself sinner, I only play for pennies,
           F# minorF#m          D MajorD
And I don't play for sinners, I play for sadness.
      E MajorE
I play for dead things.


A augmentedA             E MajorE
Pull the bones from their sockets,
     F# minorF#m               D MajorD     E MajorE
Please be softer while you do it for I am fragile and vacant.



A augmentedA     E MajorE
Sarasvati saw me to sleep.
F# minorF#m     D MajorD        E MajorE
I rested my head against the knees
    A augmentedA         E MajorE
And the music I like rose up and down
   F# minorF#m      D MajorD
Like bobbing bodies in the river bend.



And they say,
A augmentedA          DbDb
