(C major) It's not the room, not beginning

Nor the mess (G major) in your purse (E minor)
Nor the bed (C major) that is haunted (E minor)
With a blanket (C major) of thirst (E minor)
(C major) It's not the hunger revealing (E minor)
Nor the ricochet (G major) in the cave (E minor)
Nor the hand (C major) that is healing (E minor)
Nor the nameless (C major) grave (E minor)
