Rosé flowing with your chosen family

A string that pulled me
Am G D
Out of all the wrong arms, right into that dive bar
Am G D
Something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire
Am G
Chains around my demons
D Am
Wool to brave the seasons
G D
One single thread of gold
G D/F# Em Bm
Tied me to you
Verse 3:
G D/F#
Cold was the steel of my axe to grind
Em Bm
For the boys who broke my heart
G D/F# Em Bm
Now I send their babies presents
G D/F#
Gold was the color of the leaves
Em Bm
When I showed you around Centennial Park
G D/F# Em Bm
Hell was the journey but it brought me heaven
Chorus:
D
Time, wondrous time
Em
Gave me the blues and then purple-pink skies
D
And it's cool
Em
Baby, with me
D Em
And isn't it just so pretty to think
D
All along there was some
Em
Invisible string
Am G/B D
Tying you to me?
Am G/B D
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Am G/B D
Me
Am G/B D
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
