Key: D Intro: D Bm7 E7 G D Bm7 E7 G Verse 1: D Bm7 E7 G Guess I wasn't the best one to ask D Bm7 E7 G Me myself with my face pressed up against love's glass Em D To see the shiny toy i've been hoping for G A7 The one I never can afford
Verse 2: D Bm7 The wide world spins and spits turmoil E7 G And the nations toil for peace D Bm7 The paws of fear upon your chest E7 G Only love can soothe that beast Em D And my words are paper tigers G A7 No match for the predator of pain inside her Chorus: D Dmaj7 G I say love will come to you D Dmaj7 G Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true Em D G As if I've offered up a crystal ball to look through A D And where there's now one there will be two D Bm7 E7 G Verse 3: D Bm7 E7 G I was born under the sign of cancer (love will come to you) D Bm7 E7 G Like brushing cloth I smooth the wrinkles for an answer (love will come) Em D I'm always closing my eyes wishing I'm fine (I close my eyes and wish you fine) G A even though I'm not this time (even though I know your not this time)
[Chorus: D Dmaj7 G I say love will come to you D Dmaj7 G Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true Em D G As if I've offered up a crystal ball to look through A D And where there's now one there will be two Instrumental: D Bm7 E7 G D Bm7 E7 G Bridge: Em D Dodging your memories a field of knives (Dodging your memories) G A7 Always on the outside looking in on other's lives Chorus: D Dmaj7 G I say love will come to you D Dmaj7 G Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true (Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true) Em D G As if I've offered up a crystal ball to look through (I have offered up to you) A D And where there's now one there will be two Ending: Bm7 C And I wish her insight to battle love's blindness Bm7 G Strength from the milk of human kindness G A A safe place for all the pieces that scattered Em D G A7 D Learn to pretend there's more than love that ma-a-tters Outro: D Bm7 E7 G D Bm7 E7 G Note: Play Dmaj7 in the chord shape of an F#m Note: Main lyric sung by Emily Saliers, additional lyrics as Amy Ray are in brackets
