Hey all. This is my first tab, so please e-mail me with questions/suggestions I suggest using bar chords to
facilitate smoother transitions, rather than open chords.
Verse 1:
AmF
I used to friend with trees, I have a call
AmF
I close my eyes and wait for the echo
DmAm
And you came in a hurricane, I watched you in the dark
DmAm
Never seen nothing like it, no one has matched the spark

Verse 2:
AmF
I used to follow you, follow you for days
AmF
I slept beside you, just shadows away
DmAm
I watched you by the fire, your hands was all aglow
DmAm
Under the spell of a circle, I let my face show
Pre Chorus:
Am
Oh my heart is like an eagle, I love to fall from the sky
FAm
It's so beautiful, I see right through the water's edge
And I love your hands, I let them lead me into the cage
FAm
So tender but your body was warm, so frail, But your eyes like mine,
GAmF
The color of ice
Instrumental:
GAmF
