Nearly Beloved

Wallflowers

 CDEm

 GDEm
 Last night I dreamt one thousand lives
 CDEm
I could see the dawn through a different set of eyes
 GDEm
 There in my slumber passing time
 CDEm
Long live the world resting on its side

 CG
I walked the orchard with you
 DEm
Your hand in my mine
 CGB7
 In the evergreens drinking wine
 EmDCG
I saw the snow fall in black and white from the auburn sky
 B7Em
Last night I lived more than one thousand lives
 DG
Not one of them survived

Up through the earth and dawn I came
I crossed the kingdom through venom pouring rain
In the vacuum of my own brigade
Resurrected to make you mine again

Orpheus looked back once, she sailed the underworld
No second chances will be earned
I have returned as a phantom now to walk the bow and stern
 B7Em
Last night I lived more than one thousand lives
 DC
Not one of them survived

 EmBm
 If we could do better I know that we would
 CGD
 Maybe admit it now, we're not that good
 EmBm
 We keep the needle between zero and one
 CGDC
 You play your fiddle, baby, I'll play dumb        

Into the pastures of our minds
Goes my nearly beloved and I
Blazing two parallel white lines
Through this broken heart spilled open wide

Time might be on my side
But it's mostly far behind
I was the apple of your eye
Now I'm the boy spinning on a wheel there stuck with knives
Last night I lived more than one thousand lives
Not one of them survived
