Tom: B
B
[Verse 1]
B
White pine, the moon is so high
E F# E F# Abm
You see where you're going with your eyes closed
B
Wild-eyed, growl and smoke
E F# Abm Bbm
Return every question in the same tone
B E
There's a state line, out in those pines, buried in frozen ground, we've chosen our sides,
Now we can't turn it around
[Chorus]
B C#m Ebm B
F# E
Chain Emily to the stake
B C#m Ebm B F# C#m Ebm B
Her family's worried, she's terribly late
F# E
A haze rolling across the lake
Abm Bbm B E
If we go, who's to know, dead by morning if we stay
E F# F# F# F# E F# F# F#
[Verse 2]
B
A burnt tongue, the paper unfolds
E F# E F# Abm
slipping it through another keyhole
B
Slim hope of fireproof rope
E F# Abm Bbm
Kerosene off of your sweet nose
B E
It's a steak knife into my thigh, watching you flicker in real time, call your own kind
A B
now we can't turn it around
[Chorus]
F# E
Fates, give a warm soul a break
Abm Bbm B C#m Ebm B
Just give me a life where you're nothing but mine, and that's how it will stay
F# E
But hey, I've never been so afraid
Abm Bbm B E
With this cold in my bones, and a child engulfed in flame
E F# F# F# F# E x3
E F# F# F# F#
