Laura Marling – Blackberry Stone (Ukulele)

    Bm         D
Well I own this field

    Bm        D
And I rode the sky

    Bm        D         F#           G
And I have no reason to reason with you

       Bm                         D
I'd be sad that I never held your hand as you lowered,

      A                                 Bm
but I understand that I'd never let it go

                                  D
I'd be sad that I never held your hand as you were lowered,

      A                                 Bm
But I understand the world does what it does

    G             D            A
You never did learn to let the little things go,

        G            D            A
And you never did learn to let me be.

        G            D          A
And you never did learn to let little people grow,

    G            D         A
You never did learn how to see.

      Bm                           D
But I whisper that I love this man now and for forever,

        A                             Bm
To your soul as it floats out of the window.

       G              D           A
To the world that you turned your back on,

       G              D               A
To the world that never really let you be.

     Bm             D
I am lower now, and lower still,

            G               D               A
And you did always say that one day I would suffer,

        G               D                A
You did always say that people get their pay,

        G               D             A
You did always say that I was going places,

             G                D         A
And that you wouldn't have it any other way.

      Bm                         D
But I couldn't turn my back on a world,

                         A
For what I like wouldn't let me,

      Bm                         D
But i couldn't turn my back on a world,

                   A
For what I like anyday

      Bm                         D
And I couldn't turn my back on a world,

                         A
for what I like wouldn't let me

      Bm                         D
And I couldn't turn my back on a world,

                 A
for what I like I needed

      Bm
And I shouldn't turn my back,

     D                        A       D     A
