Laura Marling – Patterns (Guitar)

C#            F#
  Zena you've squared your toes

                              C#
But your friendly nose hangs around

       C#                     F#
You're still a ballerina everybody knows

                         C#
but your feet are on the ground

F#5                           F#                           D#m
  But as the years go by and points comply with evermore relief

     G#m           C#         G#
then patterns in repeat can begin

   C#                      F#
To have your children your flock of birds

                      C#
your branch among the wood

       C#                        F#
You'll try to tell them but your lost for words

                          C#
'cause it's so absurd how good

F#5
  And as those years go by

              F#                    D#m
They'll look upon you kindly like a friend

  G#m          C#             G#
A pattern in repeat and never ends

C#                   F#
Pulled for meaning I arched my back

                                 C#
And then from the black you were born

C#                 F#
Forward leaning at first abstract

                       C#
You soon contract into form

    F#5                       F#
And now as time leaps by and starts to fly

                    D#m            G#m           C#             D#m    C#
And only then can I see that we're patterns in repeat and we'll always be
