Dust chords by Ainslie Henderson

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:

Em

Verse 1:

Em                   Em
The movement of your mouth
Em                 D
The study of your face
                      C
The lines around your body
           Em     N.C.
I can't help but trace
                      Em
The quiet of the night
                  D
Is an echo of your grace
                       C
And round this house we're haunting, dancing
           Am7                   D
We are the dust in the corners of every room
           G
We are the creases in the pages
         C
Of the books stacked in the bedroom
            B                                            Em7
And you are every empty shelf you left when you left here

Verse 2:

Em                    Em
My thinkin' is unsteady
Em                      D
Like the spaces under chairs
                          C
And prayers runnin' under arguements
                                Em N.C.
It's hard to remember they're there
             Em
Corner of my eye
Em                     D
You're there on every street
                                    C
You're the face in the back of the audience

I'll never reach
           Am7                   D
We are the dust in the corners of every room
           G
We are the creases in the pages
         C
Of the books stacked in the bedroom
            B                                            Em7
And you are every empty shelf you left when you left here

Break:

B B

           Am7                   D
We are the dust in the corners of every room
           G
We are the creases in the pages
         C
Of the books stacked in the bedroom
            B                                            Em7
And you are every empty shelf you left when you left here

Verse 3:

Em                     Em
The movement of the world
                 D
Is me remembering today
      C
Every morning's turning into yesterday
