Verse 1
(G major) (Gsus2) Had (G major) (F major) I not promised
every bone
in my face to you (G major) (Gsus2)
(G major) Every bone belongs to you,
my weary pilgrim (Gsus2)
(G major) The furrowed countenance,
as if a small pitchfork,
(Gsus2) lay (G major) buried (Gsus2) between your eyebrows, (G major)
(F major) iron in in (D minor) your fore (F major) head (D minor)
(G major) (Gsus2) (G major) (Gsus2)
(G major) the fireflies smolder amongst
the flut (Gsus2) tering blades (G major) of grass (Gsus2)
(G major) an d the flowers rested like tiny
closed fists (Gsus2) (G major)
(Gsus2) Have (G major) (F major) slowly begun (D minor) to (F major) open their
sleeping (D minor) fin (G major) gers (Gsus2) (G major) (Gsus2) (G major)
(C major) I feel night falling,
(G major) how it (A minor) pours (G major) around us (F major) (G major)
(C major) The river of night curves (G major) to fit the bone
(D minor) With (G major) its (D minor) dark (G major) velvet, (B flat major) oh,
to stretch the river of night that
tightly (D minor) (G major) (Gsus2) (G major)
(F major) Had I not waited (D minor) anxiously (F major) enough
for you to return (G major) (Gsus2)
(G major) My bony side awaits you now, ribs aching (Gsus2)
(G major) For I was born one of the crooked
And only now I've
straightened out my spine
That (F major) I may reach (D minor) your
(F major) (G major) lips
(Gsus2) (G major) (Gsus2)
