Intro:
D G
Verse 1:
G
Is there some freewheeling watcher
D
Shooting marbles in the sky?
Em
Holding your years between their fingers
G
Watching it burn 'til the fire dies
Why is it heroic to untether?
D
How is alone some holy grail?
Em Bm
And if we really come and go unknown
C
Couldn't I find myself in jail
Chorus:
D G
Oh keeper, how I love you
C G
I love you and you and you
D C A7 C
And returning to myself is such a lonely thing to do
G D C G
But it's the only thing to do
Verse 2:
G
Is it evolving turning inward?
D
Oh what an easy way to be
Em
Only kneeling at the altar of

The great and mighty me

Let me break myself apart

Instead and scatter to my birds
C G
Like a burial at sea
C
To be the gospel without words

Oh my darlings how I love you

I love you and you and you

And returning to myself is such a lonely thing to do

But it's the only thing to do

There's no honor in the pilgrimage
C G
Until a soul returns
C
To hold another's hand

That life is like a stone
D
Only skipping for a time

Oh it never really holds its own

It'll never see the other side

And I was born to love you
C G
I love you and you and you
