• Capo on 1st
• Difficulty: Beginner

Key: C

Verse 1:
C      Dm
Zena, you've squared your toes
F              C
But your family nose, hangs around
C               Dm
You're still a ballerina, everybody knows
F            C
But your feet are on the ground


Chorus:
E7             F
But as the years go by and points comply
        Gsus4   G  Gsus4  G
With ever more relief
   Fm     C      G
Then patterns in repeat, can begin

Verse 2:
C              Dm
To have your children, your flock of birds
F           C
Your branch among the wood
C                  Dm
You'll try to tell them, but you're lost for words
F             C
'Cause it's so absurd, how good


Chorus:
E7                F
And as those years go by they'll look upon you
       Gsus4  G   Gsus4  G
kindly like a friend
 Fm     C   G  F   C
A pattern in repeat and never ends


Verse 3:
C           Dm
Pulled for meaning, I arched my back
F                C
And then from the black you were born
C             Dm
Forward leaning at first, abstract
F           C
You soon contract into form


Chorus:
E7              F
And now the time leaps by and starts to fly
          Gsus4 G Gsus4  G
And only then can I see
      Fm     C   G
That we're patterns in repeat
F            C
And we'll always be


Outro:
F     C
hhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
F     C
hhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
F     Fm      C
hhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
