Chords with lyrics
HARRIET
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
C majorC
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
through the hem of evening
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
into the flesh of the night
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
you step out to receive them
C majorC
in the bruising light
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
you leave your bed of novels
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
you leave your hovering crown
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
you leave your wit and your mettle
C majorC
and you come down
D MajorD
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
but it's only a minute then
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
til the hole in the canvas spreads
C majorC E minorEm G+G A minorAm E minorEm
and it grows til there's nothing left
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
C majorC
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
so if you even remember
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
me after all that will come
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
think of all i intended
C majorC
not what i've done
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
see me like an arrow
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
still upon the bow
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
set to the heart of the target
C majorC
hanging bright above
D MajorD
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
but it's only a minute then
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
til the shot is released and sent
C majorC E minorEm G+G A minorAm E minorEm
and lost to the shifting wind
G+G A minorAm D MajorD
(key change!)
D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
oh they don't know you, not like i do, not like us, harriet
D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
but they would love you, just like i do, if they could, harriet
D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
cause what you are, and what you want, are so far apart, and they're travelling on
D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
oh what you are is staggering drunk, but i'll pick you up and i'll carry you off
(key change!)
E MajorE A augmentedA C# minorC#m BB
oh they don't know you, not like i know you, not like us, harriet
E MajorE A augmentedA C# minorC#m BB
but they would love you, just like i love you, if they could, harriet
