Chords

[Intro] B [Chorus]
B              G
She who walks alone in life

A                Bm
She of sound mind

     B              G
I am only as old as I've been told

    F#
Now I'm playing for time

Bm              G
Darling take me to the lakeside

A                Bm
Wash my body well

     B            G
I am holy now the water's hit me

Em
Broken from your spell

                  Bm    A   Bm
Cause I was on my hands and knees

               Bm    A  Em
Bending at the heart of me

B                 G
We don't know the weight of all

    A               Bm
The words we say now

     B                    G
In a few more years, with open ears

       F#
Would you still say them aloud?

Bm             G
They who walk alone in life

A                 Bm
They are of sound mind

       B                G
We can only get hurt by things we've heard

    Em
And lovers are unkind

                     Bm  A  Bm
But did you hear the sun go down?

            Bm    A  Em
Silent as a child I found

              Bm       A     Em
Hiding in the midnight of my soul

           G      A       Bm
I am ready now to let her go

B              G
She who walks alone in life

A       Bm
She by herself

        B             G
We are only as old as we've been told

F#
And I'm not ready for the shelf

Bm              G
Darling take me to the lakeside

A               Bm
Lay my body down

     B              G
I am holy now while skin is touching

Em
Let the sun go out

           Bm    A   Bm
I am on my hands and knees

               Bm    A  Em
Bending at the heart of me

              Bm       A    Em
Hiding in the midnight of my soul

                       G          A      Bm
Please don't break the shell that I call home
