You used to be my confidante

My underneath-the-staircase friend

Verse 1:
D         A  D
In your reflected glory I
D           G    A
Could dream of shining far off lands
Em
Where serpents turn to bits of string
G              D
And play like kittens in my hand


Verse 2:
G
In our imaginary world
D
Where butterflies were on the woods
G
And stomp around the forests
     D    G
Chanting long lost anthems

Long lost anthems
