I saw a modest dream

The kind that can't speak up

In the north we hold our tongues

But down here I believe
G 
Em 
When you pull your hair
Am 
back it's so easy to see

This has not been thought through
Em 
There are things that we've done
Am 
that we cannot undo
Em 
There are things I can't hear when we're telling
F 
the truth

Interlude 1

Verse 3

At a table out in Bethel

When I was thirteen

The criminals were saying

Liked how I was silent

Verse 4

The cold was the container

For the sparseness of our speech

The expression in our hands

Was all that we'd need

Am 
G 
But down here I believe
Em 
That I made a big deal with
Am 
a girl that can't bleed
G 
Now I see red and black
F 
Em 
And   evening that kills
Am 
I want to take it back
Em 
An evening that kills and
F 
I can't take it back

I'm going home back
to New Hampshire
C 
I'm so determined
F 
To lay in lakes and see my sisters
C 
I will hit my brother and hold my mother

Interlude 3

Verse 7

This probably won't work out

We might not live forever

While there's nothing to confess

Please pay attention

Verse 8
Am 
Em 
And I know that it's brief
There's not nearly enough in
F 
one night to have seen
Am 
Em 
What you had in your hand
Was much more than the gold
F 
Am 
that I let go to grab
Em 
F 
So much more than the gold that I let go
