Thousand Secrets – Sahara Smith
Capo III

Verse 1:
D                                         Em
Blue light breaking on the window glass & cool wind shaking in the long white grass
G                             A             D
The ocean speaks the language of the dawn
D                                            Em
Thin sails rising on the autumn sky, and the old man’s singing while the knots untie
G                                A   D
I looked back and all the ships are gone.

Chorus:
Em                 D
And no one’s gonna know
Em                                   G                          D
The thousand little secrets that are slippin’ through the undertow.
Em              G             D                   A
There’s a quiet hunger I have curled myself inside
Em                  A      D
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
Sold white carnations in an neon bar
And when he turned sixteen he bought a stolen car,
Drove all the way to Dallas in the dark.
And I could fall in love but I’m so damn young
And I try to hold on but then the quicker rains come
And everytime they fall it breaks my heart.

Chorus:
And no one’s gonna know
The thousand little secrets that are slippin’ through the undertow.
There’s a quiet hunger I have curled myself inside
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.

Bridge:

G       A      Bm     G      A      Bm
Every broken bridge, there’s mile of fallen leaves.
G       A      Bm                     G            A            D
And no one knows the river flows a thousand miles deep.

Verse 3:
Wanna walk on water, wanna walk downstream,
I wanna walk back to New Orleans, with the crash of broken glass in the yard.
I wanna quit this city in the midnight hush of a pale moon shinin’ on a southbound bus.
You never know what you’ve lost until you lose it hard.

Chorus/Outro:
And no one’s gonna know
The thousand little secrets that are slippin’ through the undertow.
There’s a quiet hunger I have curled myself inside
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
There’s a quiet hunger I have curled myself inside
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
