Fossil in Stone - Charm of Finches
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------||
[Verse 1]
Am G
Beaten me to death, all I am now is bones
F G
I’ll try to build a skeleton as white as snow
Am G
Sediment will crush me, plantation will grow
F G
Be the archeologist, find a fossil in stone
Am G
Staring at the starry ceiling, conversations with trees
F G
Soon the dark is closing and brings me to my knees
Am G
All the world is sleeping but I am still awake
F G Am
I try to tell myself that all this wasn’t a mistake
[Chorus]
Am G
I’ll try see the light
F G
I’ll try to breathe in in time
Am G
I’ll try hold me ground
F G
Without falling back down
[Verse 2]
Am G
Flames inside me burning, burning me up
F G
I’m waiting for the water but you never turn the cup
Am G
I’m trying hard to fight it, the flames lick my skin
F G
I’m running for the water but the fire pulls me in
[Chorus]
Am G
I’ll try see the light
F G
I’ll try to breathe in in time
Am G
I’ll try hold me ground
F G
Without falling back down
[Outro]
Am G
Beaten me to death all I am now is bones
F G
I’ll try to build a skeleton as white as snow
Am G
Sediment will crush me, plantation will grow
F G
Be the archeologist, find a fossil in stone
