Tom: G

     C              G            Em          D              C
Bury my feet in the dirt, by the pine in the garden with my cat
           G            Em            D
He got too brave in the breath of the freeway
     C               G                   Em           D                    C
Bury my feet in your blankets, Christmas lights in your bedroom, with your cat
          G           Em               D
And I get brave and I tell you how I'm feeling

     C               G                    Em              D
Bury my face in your hair, you smell like parliaments and whispered fears
      C                D                    Em          C
Like "what if you move back to New York and I never see you again?"
   C                 G                Em             D
We wear each other’s clothes a silent promise on the back porch
   C            D        Em                C
We pack another bowl and skate down to the corner store
D

[Chorus]
            C                      Am
I watch the nail glow rеd, turn my teeth into ash
           Em        D          C           
You've got eyes likе fire and i'm feeling cashed
     G                        Am       
With grief in my lungs I will choke on your silence
     Em           D            C                     
Your breath on my lips and the patterns that bind us

[Verse 2]
        C               G
And our eyes glaze over eagerly
   Em                     D
In smoked out fantasies of chosen family
  C                     G
A house in the woods, a litter of kittens
   Em                              D
We could raise our children with a river to swim in
C                   G
You brush my hair behind my ear
      Em                             D
Can’t stay in this town long but for tonight you're here
        C                                   G
I never throw out your empties you haunt me night after night
        Em                             C
I see reflections of ghosts, like your eyes in the porch light
D

[Chorus]
N.C.
I watch the nail glow rеd, turn my teeth into ash
N.C.           
You've got eyes likе fire and i'm feeling cashed
N.C.    
With grief in my lungs I will choke on your silence
N.C.
Your breath on my lips and the patterns that bind us

            C                      Am
I watch the nail glow rеd, turn my teeth into ash
           Em         D          C           
You've got eyes likе fire and i'm feeling cashed
     G                        Am       
With grief in my lungs I will choke on your silence
     Em           D            C                     
Your breath on my lips and the patterns that bind us
