Chords

[Verse 1]
C                                G
Never more in love than when I'm leaving

G                                    C
Never want you more than when you're gone

C                                  G
Never miss the wind that keeps me breathing

G                                       C
'Til it leaves my lungs gasping for its song
[Verse 2]
C                                              G
You warmed the earth inside me with your bare hands

G                                       C
You took me by the heart and slowed its beat

C                                  G
The dirt within me turned and became muddy

G                                           C
With your digging and your constant burning heat
[Chorus]
        Am                            F
You came swiftly as a snowstorm in October

       C           Am              G     G7
Unexpectedly, you turned me into sleet

          Am                                    F
And if I could, I guess I'd love you ten times o-ver

               G               G7             C
It's just I'd choose a better time for us to meet
[Verse 3]
C                                     G
I never feel more found than when I'm wandering

G                                     C
I never feel more still than when I'm free

C                                         G
But to hear that quiet voice, I'd give up everything

G                                  C
To follow the soft sighing of the sea
[Chorus]
        Am                            F
You came swiftly as a snowstorm in October

       C           Am              G       G7
Unexpectedly, you turned me into sleet

          Am                                    F
And if I could, I guess I'd love you ten times o-ver

               G               G7             C
It's just I'd choose a better time for us to meet
