Intro: Am
Am     B  Dm        Am
  I am just a weary singer

Am       B           Dm       E 
 Moving through this world of ills

Am        B       Dm      Am
 Hark the choir of predecessors

E                     G      C
 When the paint grows darker still

Am      B   Dm         Am
 Once I found a golden trumpet

Am      B          Dm      E
 In the mash of an old landfill

Am     B  Dm        Am
 Now I play for the spirits

E                     G      C    
 When the paint grows darker still

F       G     C      Bb
 Winter waited in my garden

F         G          C      G
 When the sun did refuse to shine

F     G       C     Bb
 Honeybees all in a slumber

F             G      C   G
 Skies filled up the sea

F        G       C   G
 Falling down on me
[BREAK] Am B Dm Am Am B Dm E Am B Dm Am E G C
F       G     C      Bb
 Winter waited in my garden

F         G           C     G
 When the sun did refuse to shine

F     G       C     Bb
 Honeybees all in a slumber

F             G      C   G
 Skies filled up the sea

F        G       C  G
 Falling down on me

Am       B  Dm        Am
 See his eyes turn to stained glass

Am       B        Dm        E
 Head to toe in a black roadkill

Am      B Dm        Am
 Here I am for your judgement

E                     G      C    G
 When the paint grows darker still

E                     G      C    G
 When the paint grows darker still

E                     G      C
 When the paint grows darker still
