A Place That I Dont Know

Odette


Tom: C

              C
What else can I do
G
When a city skyline
          Em           F
Leaves me blue and indecisive?
              C
What else can I say
          G                      Em
When your eyes  they dart to and fro
                 F
But I can't look away?

[Chorus 1]
                F
I want to feel grounded
         G     Am
Like a sturdy oak
              F
I want to be surrounded
     G     Am
By honest hope
                 F
I feel devoid of kindness
       C
You've made this home
   F
A place that I don't know
   G                  C
A place that I don't know

(C G Em F) x 2

[Verse 2]
             C
You were so unsure
        G
Of your own desires
         Em              F
You were tearing at your seams
                     C
Alas you should have known
           G
That these alterations
          Em            F
They were also changing me


[Chorus 2]
                    F
And all the hurt it lingers
       G      Am
Like a silent ghost
               F
All this empty anger
         G        Am
I should not have spoke
               F
I want to give kindness
           C
But you've taken me to
  C                  F
A place that I don't know
  G                  Am
A place that I don't know
F C

(Am F C C) x 4 (build here)

[Bridge]
           Am                                     F
Hands that grasp at air where once were things of yours
            C                                 
This mess I didn't make but still it hurts me so
   Em         Am                            F
I yearn for you but oh my love you had to go
              C                         
You made this home a place that I don't know
     Em       Am                                  F
And all the times that I'd caress your freckled arms
               C                             
When you would hold me in the early hours of dawn
      Em        Am                               F
These pictures don't make up for how you left me scorned
       C                             
And so alone in this place that I don't know
     Em                   Am
This place that I don't know

(continue progression Am  F  C  Em)

[Outro]
Am        F      C      Em
Oh oh oh oh
Am        F      C      Em
Know oh oh oh oh
