Goodbye England (Covered in Snow) Laura Marling
Although I've a funny feeling she plays it in a different tuning, I reckon this
sounds about right. It may be completely wrong, in which case I'm sorry.
[D] [Bm] [G] [D]
You were so [D]smart then,
In your jacket and [Bm]coat,
My softest red [A]scarf was,
Warming your [D]throat.
Winter was on [D]us,
At the end of my [Bm]nose,
G (A?) D
And I never love England more than when covered in snow.
Well a [Bm]friend of mine says it's [A]good to hear,
You [G]believe in love even if [D]set in fear,
Well I'll hold you [Bm]there brother and [A]set you straight,
I onl[G]y believe true [D]love is frail and willing to [A]break.
I will come [D]back here,
Bring me back when I'm [Bm]old,
I want to [A]lay here,
Forever in the [D]cold,
I might be [D]cold but,
I'm just skin and [Bm]bone,
G (A?) D
And I never love England more than when covered in snow.
[D]I wrote my name in your book, [Bm]only God knows why,
And I [A]bet you that he cracked a smile,
And I'm [G]clearing all the stuff out of my [D]room,
[D]Trying desperately to figure out,
[A]What it is that makes me blue,
And I [G]wrote an epic letter to y[D]ou,
And it's 22 pages front and back,
And it's [A]too good to be used,
And I [G]tried to be a girl who likes to be [D]used,
I'm too [D]good for that,
There's a [G]mind under this hat and I,
[Bm]Called them all and told them i've got to [D]move.
[D]I'm out of love, [Bm]it's too hard,
[Bm]I'm all alone, i[Bm]t's too hard,
[D]Feel like [Bm]running, [D]feel like[Bm] running,
[A]Running off.
[D]And we will [Bm]keep you, [D]we will [Bm]keep you [A]little one
[G]Safe from harm, [A]like an extra arm
You are part of [D]us.
You were so [D]smart then,
In your jacket and [Bm]coat,
My softest red [A]scarf was,
Warming your [D]throat.
Winter will us[D],
Left the end of my n[Bm]ose,
G (A?) D
And I never love England more than when covered in snow.
