The Pink And The Lily chords by Sandi Thom

Key of G

Verse 1:
G                            C
Street lights ablaze and the air is so dry
          D                      Em
There's a cat in my bucket smoke covers the sky
        G                          C
And the sound of the traffic keeps me from my dreams
        D
Like one million soldiers just shuffled their feet



    C                             Em
The heat of the night is one that I can't escape
    Am                         D
So I listen to the underground rumble and shake
          C                       G
There's something so beautiful being alive
          C              D
When your young wild and free
                       G
And just trying to survive

Chorus:
   C                                      G
So hold me I believe every word that you told me
                             D
And every last line that you sold me
                                  G
I'll love you for the rest of my life
 C                                G
Take me turn me around and you'll make me
                         D
Follow the footsteps you gave me
       C                   G
In the Pink and the Lily tonight

Verse 2:
 G                 C
Freedoms a luxury taken in vain
     D                        Em
It's hard to find justice and fight for a change
            G                   C
Cos there's so many people that cannot be heard
      D
Their thoughts and their feelings just kicked to the curb

   C                   G
I may not be old and I may not be wise
      Em                      D
But I call upon those with a chance in this life
 C                          G
Climb to the rooftops and open your eyes
         C              D                          G
Cos your young wild and free and just trying to survive

Chorus:
   C                                      G
So hold me I believe every word that you told me
                             D
And every last line that you sold me
                                  G
I'll love you for the rest of my life
C                                  G
Take me turn me around and you'll make me
                          D
Follow the footsteps you gave me
       C                   G
In the Pink and the Lily tonight

Outro:
                          D
Follow the footsteps you gave me
       C                   G
In the Pink and the Lily tonight
                          D
Follow the footsteps you gave me
      C                     G
In the Pink and the Lily tonight
