Black Stars chords by Jolie Holland

I saw you tonight by the light
                    F
Of the shining black stars that circle my heart
C C/G          C    C/G          C
I saw you come in, though it was dim
            F
I have been listening from the beginning

Bb
When you arrived
It was as if we had both died
F
And gone somewhere else
You and myself
Bb
That otherworldly feeling
Came over me stealing
F

My mind was reeling
Blood bleeding
C  C/G      C    C/G
Red like my guitar
C   C/G    C   C/G
Whoever you are
F
Cold in the night
I think you're right
      C   C/G  C   C/G
To whisper and listen
C    C/G    C     C/G
Like flowers glisten
F
In a quiet garden
F                             C
The moon is wizened and it is old
C/G   C  C/G           C    C/G    C     C/G
As a toad in a Chinese story

G
The fallen glory of my ego
F
Is laid at the feet of all our purposes
       C
And my purpose is to keep on dreaming

Bb
I am fishing for wishes
            F
That's where you come in
Though it was dim
Bb
When you arrived
It was as if we had both died
F
And gone somewhere else
