She Is My Escape chords by John Smith

Chords with lyrics

Tabbed by Joe (tabs at stype dot org)

DADGAD but it works in standard tuning quite well

E MajorE
The crowd at the gate is hanging on late like posters from some lost campaign
F# minorF#m
Suits loose and frayed, their hats blown away, sails catching nothing but rain
A augmentedA
I stand with a rope tied firm to the hope that will leave a good night where it fell
E MajorE                    F# minorF#m E MajorE         F# minorF#m   E MajorE
and that light burst and free is coming for me, let's love and let's do loving well

F# minorF#m E MajorE

E MajorE
Now I woke in a cloud after speaking aloud to a vision of you in the street
F# minorF#m
Back in a room the heat in full bloom I see lilies grow wild at my feet
A augmentedA
So down the line I'll keep your heart in mine and our lungs ring an hourly bell
E MajorE                    F# minorF#m E MajorE         F# minorF#m   E MajorE
It's as clear as the moon as it follows and taps on my shoulder; I'm under a spell

F# minorF#m E MajorE

E MajorE
Out here in the night where I once lost the fight and abandoned all hope for a home
F# minorF#m
I seek out her shape, you know she is my escape and I'll follow wherever she goes
A augmentedA
The hinge of her door well it groans and roars and what stands between us like a veil
E MajorE                    F# minorF#m E MajorE         F# minorF#m   E MajorE
Is my fear and my doubt, but I turn and sing darling, let's love and let's do loving well
E MajorE  F# minorF#m   E MajorE
let's love and let's do loving well
E MajorE  F# minorF#m   E MajorE
let's love and let's do loving well
