#Intro: Em D A (x4)
#
[Em]I was just [D]bony [A]hands as [Em]cold as a winter po[D]le[A]
[Em]you held a [D]warm stone [A]out new [Em]flowing blood to ho[D]ld[A]
[Em]oh what a [D]contr[A]ast you were
[Em]to the brutes in the [D]halls[A]
[Em]my timid young [D]fingers [A]held a [Em]decent animal.[D][A]
[G]Over the [D]ramparts you tossed
[G]the scent of your [D]skin and some foreign flowers
[G]tied to a [D]brick
sweet as a [F]song
the years have been [C]short but the days were [D]long.
Cool of a temperate breeze from dark skies to wet grass
we fell in a field it seems now a thousand summers passed
when our kite lines first crossed
we tied 'em into knots
and to finally fly apart
we had to cut them off.
Since then it's been a book you read in reverse
so you understand less as the pages turn
or a movie so crass
and awkardly cast
that even I could be the star.
[C] I [D]don't look back as [F]much as a [G]rule
[C] and all [D]this way before [F]murder was [G]cool
[C] but your [D]memory is here and I'd [G]like it to [C]stay
[C]warm light on a w[D]inter's day.
Over the ramparts you tossed
the scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
tied to a brick
sweet as a song
the years have been short but the days go slowly by
two loose kites falling from the sky
drawn to the ground
