Verse 1:
  C minorCm
We cut our tongues
                Eb MajorEb
On the grey of morning for the one we love
               Bb majorBb
The sisters argued about what was done
             F minorFm
As joy and sorrow often do

Verse 2:
    C minorCm
On the mantle hangs
                  Eb MajorEb
Our hearts with yours and all the sticky pain
               Bb majorBb
The same thing that we have blamed
             F minorFm
Is the same thing that we need

C minorCm
In the arms
              Eb MajorEb
Of saint felicity is a thousand storms
             Bb majorBb
Quietly rusting but still giving hope
               F minorFm
This is a comma, not a period

Curse the birds
             Eb MajorEb
For singing on a day when we have hurt
                Bb majorBb
Tryin' to see through eyes that weeping blurred
                     F minorFm
If I could see you would it even change?

Give constellations new consolations

In a kindness only darkness proves

In a kindness only darkness proves
AbAb            C minorCm
Wraps itself around you, wraps itself around you
   Eb MajorEb           Bb majorBb
In a kindness only darkness proves
