Chords with lyrics

Intro:

FF             A minorAm    C majorC


Verse 1:

Same as Intro

FF
Doubled the top knot flew out the lattice door
A minorAm      C majorC
Do what he wouldn't, do what he couldn't do
FF
No lack of wouldn't could be my undoing
A minorAm    C majorC
No lack of trying, no lack of sighing loo
FF
Weave songs of loving, late dream songs of dying
A minorAm            C majorC
Recite the oakwood flame, rings count my olden days
FF
I've seen the beaches breached the peak of please and thanks
A minorAm           C majorC
I've seen my features age, my fingers strange

FF       A minorAm    C majorC

~~~      From the dew

FF                A minorAm    C majorC
From the dew of the fields we grew
FF
And I built a ship for two
A minorAm       C majorC
It waits for me and you
FF
From the dew of the fields

A minorAm  C majorC

~~~~~    Is it real? Is it real?


Chorus: (There's a quick C majorC between the E minorEm and the G+G here, accented when he says "SHOW you the way")


E minorEm  C majorC G+G
~~~~~~~       I'll show you the way

C majorC                G+G
Just walk beside the low stream until it fades
       C majorC
Into a melon colored field
       G+G
The wind will know your name
       C majorC
And you don't have to run
      E minorEm
You don't have to change
            FF
Don't ever change

Verse 2:

FF            A minorAm        C majorC
We were the candles that lit up the snow on dusty roads
FF             A minorAm       C majorC
We were the animals breathing life into June just to see faith
FF             A minorAm       C majorC
Blessed by the cannibal moon and the spoon dipping deep to your nose
FF             A minorAm       C majorC
Stressed by the distance of shoes and the bridges too far to be named

FF                A minorAm        C majorC
~~~~~         Was it real?

FF
When we held our hands close to flame
     A minorAm      C majorC
Just to feel

Chorus:
E minorEm       C majorC  G+G
I'll show you the way
    C majorC                    G+G
Just walk beside the low stream until it fades
     C majorC
Into a honey colored field
      G+G
The wind will know your name
   C majorC
And you don't have to change
   G+G
You don't have to change


Bridge:

E minorEm
Love is real
         G+G
Our love was real
     C majorC             G+G
It's a hand, it's a hold, it's a shield


Chorus:
E minorEm
Our love was real
        G+G
Our love was real
    C majorC                E minorEm
It's to hope, it's to dream, it's to heal
    G+G
It's to heal

End on G+G
