Chords with lyrics
Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)
A G
With my back on the floor
C F
Cold linoleum icing my growing pains
A G
Watch the ceiling fan turn its shape again
C F
My threads are coming loose
A G
Yeah, I'm one spoon away
C F
From setting the ends of my hair on fire
A G
If I'm kindling for a little while
C F
At least I'd feel of use
A G C
Maybe then my breath could embody
G A
A wildfire starting
G C F
I'd sweep up the forest floor
G C
And my body'd breathe life into the corners
A
Be a darker soil
A G
Making lists, folding laundry
C F
Keeping tidy with my radio show
A G
I'd be lying if I told you
C F
I'm keeping tidy anymore
A G
Yeah, I swing from believing
C F
That maybe my working will all pay off
A G
To considering drinking with Molotov
C F
I'm halfway out the door
A G C
Maybe then my breath could embody
G A
A wildfire starting
G C F
I'd sweep up the forest floor
G C
And my body'd breathe life into the corners
A
Be a darker soil
C
Promise me
F G
That you'll start where I end
C F
And I promise to give you
A G C
Everything I am
G
(On and on and on)
A F
We'll go on and on and on
G
In the end
F
All I hope for
C F
Is to be a bit of warmth for you
C G
When there's not a lot of warmth left
A
To go around
