Bones
guitar chords lyrics
Over the tracks,
Am F
with a sack full of matches,
C F E D C
I'm gonna burn all the letters I've wrote.
C E
Don't worry, darling,
Am F
I ain't brave enough to catch it
C F E D C
this fire that's licking my hopes.
Chorus
F C
Besides, if I went up
F C
like a soaked rolling paper,
F C
I'd still be fast-burning-out.
F C F Am
And what's the use of a good, strong noose
C F E D C
when your problem's too much hanging around?
Verse
C E
So I walked back crashing,
Am F
my pockets full of ash in
C F E D C
the latesummer moon's holy glow.
C E Am F
that loved me to death on the banks of every river,
C F E D C
where every breath in brought me home.
Chorus
F C
'Cause if home's where hearts is
F C
beating like a bird's wing,
F C
then I've many homes and I should:
F C
said a man who wasn't homeless,
C Am
"I'm always just traveling
C F E D C
taking walks around my neighborhood."
C E Am F
C F E D C
Verse
C E
Wisdom: it comes
Am F
but age don't unlock it.
C F E D C
You've got to spend all the passion you've found.
C E
With more change in their heads
Am F
than in all of their pockets,
Outro
C F Am D
some can show you the way to slow down. (oooh...)
C F E D C
Sometimes we all need to slow down.
