Chords

[Intro] G C Em C G D G [Verse]
G       C
Life is designed

Em              C
With unfinished lines

G     D       G
That another sings

G          C
Each story unfolds

Em          C
Like it was gold

G     D        G
Upon a ragged wing

G                C
The bold and the fair

Em           C
Suffer their share

G   D             C
He whispered to his kin

G         C
All of my debts

Em        C
Left with regrets

G    D         G
I'm sorry for everything
[Chorus]
Am                      G
Trespasses stretch like broken fences

Em      D       C
Winding as they may

Am                      Em
Trespasses stretch like broken fences

F       C             D
Hope to mend them one day
[Verse]
          G             C
And she pinned back her hair

  Em             C
Shouldered with care

     G      D         G
The burdens that were his

G            C
Mending the coat

     Em           C
That hung on the post 

     G      D   G
In heart remembering
[Interlude] G C Em C G D G x2 [Chorus]
Am                      G
Trespasses stretch like broken fences

Em      D       C
Winding as they may

Am                      Em
Trespasses stretch like broken fences

F       C             D
Hope to mend them one day
[Verse]
    G                C
And her time was to come

   Em          C
Called to her son

 G      D         G
This your song to sing

G           C
All of our debts

  Em        C
Wove with regrets

 G      D       G
Upon a golden string

   G                C
And he found the old coat

  Em        C
Hung on a post

  G    D       
Like a ragged wing

     G          C
And took as his own

     Em         C
The sewn and unsown

 G      D        G
Joyfully whistling
