[Intro/Outro]x2
[Verse]:
I was [Dm]lost in the [C]Lakes
And the [G7]shapes that your [Fsus4]body makes
That your [Dm]body makes, that your [C]body makes
That your [G7]body makes[Fsus4]
[Bridge]x2
[Verse]:
And the [Dm]mountains said I could [C]find you here
They [G7]whispered the snow and the [Fsus4]leaves in my ear
I [Dm]traced my finger a[C]long your trails
Your [G7]body was the map, I was [Fsus4]lost in it
[Cborus]x2
[F]Floating over your [C]rocky spine
The [G7]glaciers made you, and [Fsus4]now you're mine
[F]Floating over your [C]rocky spine
The [G7]glaciers made you, and [Fsus4]now you're mine
[Intro/Outro]x2
[Verse]:
I was [Dm]moving across your [C]frozen veneer
The [G7]sky was dark but [Fsus4]you were clear
[Dm]Could you feel my [C]footsteps?
And would you [G7]shatter, would you shatter, would [Fsus4]you?
And with your soft fingers between my claws
Like purity against resolve
I could [Dm]tell then and there we were [C]formed from the clay
And [G7]came from the rocks for the [Fsus4]earth to display
They [Dm]told me to be [C]careful up there
Where the [G7]wind blows a venomous [Fsus4]rage through your hair
They [Dm]told me to be [C]careful up there
Where the [G7]wind rages through your [Fsus4]hair
[Intro/Outro]x2
************************************
[README]:
I won't pretend this follows the song verbatim, but it can serve as a platform
to play around with. The intro/outro attempts to capture the flair of the banjo
while staying true to the role of rhythm guitar. While on the topic, I'm not
sure that the Fsus4 [113311] I have listed is correct; rather, the chord may
actually be A#Mag7/F [132311].
Please comment or e-mail me if you have suggestions to improve this tab.
