[Verse 1]
DmDm FF Bb majorBb Bbadd#11
Drawn into the frost on the glass was a map pointing to my secret hiding place
DmDm FF Bb majorBb Bbadd#11
It led you to the tree with the split in its trunk on the way into your family's yard
DmDm FF Bb majorBb Bbadd#11
In that tree you saw I brought the dog back to life
DmDm FF Bb majorBb Bbadd#11
I watch you from the branches while you stared from the ground with a look I couldn't understand
FF
So I said "leave me alone, if your only words are ugly ones"
And you just smiled and said "come and show me how it's done"

[Verse 2]
DmDm Bb majorBb FF Bb majorBb Bbadd#11
You dug up your old bird, and you held her to your chest as I breathed life back into her lungs
DmDm Bb majorBb FF
And she blinked and flapped her wings, and she sang a familiar song
C majorC
Before she took to the air and cut a path into the woods
DmDm FF Bb majorBb FF C majorC
And then I cried, because all my life I have known something was off
DmDm Bb majorBb Bbadd#11
But you just shrugged and said: "it ain't just you"

[Verse 3]
DmDm FF Bb majorBb Bbadd#11
Slipping on the pavement where we ran from the ghosts that you saw behind the cellar door
DmDm FF
That's the way that you showed me that I wasn't quite alone
