Am C G G7 G?
beneath forgotten undergrowth something stirring again

G7 G? F G Am
but i lost you in this knot of capillaries
C G G7 G?
but you were bringing me oxygen when i needed it most in the

[Am]your presence pervading, but it still never shows
[C]as close as the answer i never quite [F]know, or can’t quite remember
[Dm]your distance insidious, as soft as a blow
[Am]your shadow is with me wherever i go
[C]it’s on the tip of my tongue but still i never quite [F]know, or can’t quite remember
i don’t quite remember

Verse two is the same as verse one.

It's really hard to place the chords because some words are sung quickly
and some very slowly but you get the idea, hopefully :)
