Mud And Pollen

Tom: Ebm

Ebm Bb
No longer
       B            Gb
All my purity's run dry
            Db
Look in the cellar
Ebm Bb
No heartache
       B                Gb
No one looks you in the eyes
             Bb
Nothing gets better there
        Ebm         Bb
Still unsure, and unable
             B                 Gb    Bb
I’m building homes in waves of gray
         Ebm           Bb
And that house, in the meadow
       B             Gb    Bb
That I dreamt of everyday

[Pre-Chorus]
           Ebm             Bb
Now just a room, built for one
        Db                         B
Sinking back to the mud and to the pollen
                   Db
I remember when it started

[Chorus 1]
              Gb                Db
When she said hello, something awoke
         Abm       Ebm
I felt a warm light
    Bb                        B
But I can't find words for it

I can't find words but I'm
Gb     Db         Abm Ebm
Moving on, I guess I realize
     Bb                              B
That they didn't make words for this

There are not words for this
Bb
So let me just dance with her
      B
Oh my darling I just want to dance with you

Abm Ebm Abm Ebm Eb

[Verse 2]
Ab Eb
No longer
     Abm                 B    Ebm
Our ambitions lost their soul
Ab   Eb
No, sailor
          E                B
You won’t make it to that shore
           Eb
No one has time for you now

[Bridge]
                           Abm          G
There was supposed to be a high, at the end
              B                    E
But then the snakes started coming back again
          Ebm
And that’s all, that there is now
            E
For you and I
   Ebm                                    E     Gb
My footing was lost as we ran through the sky
                              E
The same body, now with these holes in the side

[Chorus 2]
              B
When she said goodbye
          Ebm                  E
Something died and she took it with her
    Ebm
She walked out the door with it
    E
She walked out the door of a
B                    Ebm
Home, built inside a soul
            E
Now forever vacant
          Ebm
That will never be warm again
    E
But tells of all the times we spent
   B                 Ebm               E
So high up above the clouds, people in heaven
        Ebm
Came to envy the two of us
             E
Because they saw what can really happen when
B            Ebm                   E
Hearts intertwine, they called it true love
    Ebm
But those aren’t really words for this
E
I couldn’t find words for this
Ebm
So let me just dance with her
      E
Oh my darling I just wanna dance with you
