[C]When you mend the patches of my cloth[F]ing
[C]You know every thread goes through my he[C/B]art
[C]Guessin' that the rivers gonna d[F]ry up
[C]Well I said that's not the r[C/B]eason why we par[C]t
Looking 'round the corner where I left you
Wonderin' whatever led me there
Knowin' that a quiet, unconscious feeling
Could be bought to drown a memory anywhere
[Dm]She said "I don't want your medicine and
I[F] don't need no sparrow in my hea[C]rt"
[Dm]When I'm covered by the thunder
I get r[F]id of all your breath deep in my lu[C/B]ngs
Splittin' the wind apa[C]rt
And when I touch the ceiling on a spring day
Wishin' it could heed up every crow
So that they could lift me by my shoulders
Take me from this frozen lake and let you know
Just that I want to be your medicine
I want to feed the sparrow in your heart
When we're covered by the thunder
I'll get rid of all the breath deep in our lungs
Splittin' the wind apart
Hell I'm still standing 'round the corner where I left you
Diggin' up a quite sufficient track
Never know when you're behind that angle
With a tranquilizer gun in your sweet hand
Oh I want to be your medicine
I want to feed the sparrow in your art
When we're covered by the thunder
we'd become just one and feel the lightning shard
Splittin' the wind apart
