D MajorD F# minorF#m E minor 7Em7 B minorBm
D MajorD F# minorF#m E minor 7Em7 B minorBm


🎸 Verse:

D MajorD    F# minorF#m      E minor 7Em7    B minorBm
Is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me?
D MajorD      F# minorF#m       E minor 7Em7
I'm not cut out for all these cynical clones
   B minorBm
These hunters with cell phones

🎸 Chorus:

F# minorF#m                 G+G
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
      B minorBm              F# minorF#m
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you
F# minorF#m                G+G
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
      A augmentedA
I'm setting off, but not without my muse

🎸 Verse:

D MajorD       F# minorF#m      E minor 7Em7
What should be over burrowed under my skin
  B minorBm           D MajorD
In heart-stopping waves of hurt
D MajorD       F# minorF#m        E minor 7Em7
I've come too far to watch some namedropping sleaze
    B minorBm
Tell me what are my words worth

🎸 Chorus:

F# minorF#m                 G+G
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
      B minorBm               F# minorF#m
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you
F# minorF#m                 G+G
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
       A augmentedA
I'm setting off, but not without my muse

🎸 Bridge:

D MajorD         F# minorF#m
I want auroras and sad prose
E minor 7Em7         B minorBm       D MajorD
I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet
F# minorF#m              E minor 7Em7
'cause I haven't moved in years
B minorBm
And I want you right here
D MajorD     F# minorF#m      E minor 7Em7
A augmentedA red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground
B minorBm
With no one around to tweet it
D MajorD        F# minorF#m
While I bathe in cliffside pools
     E minor 7Em7          B minorBm
With my calamitous love and insurmountable grief

 🎸 Chorus:

F# minorF#m                 G+G
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
      B minorBm               F# minorF#m
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you
F# minorF#m                 G+G
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
      A augmentedA
I'm setting off, but not without my muse
         D MajorD
No, not without you

Final: D MajorD F# minorF#m E minor 7Em7 B minorBm
