Radical Face – Severus And Stone (Ukulele)

Intro: C Am F
The Bm and G are played in quick succession, like the chords in the song. If you choose 

C                                  Am F
all the trees stood like skeletons

C                         Am F
silhouettes of spilled ink

C                                    Am                 Asus2
and the snows fell in sheets and got wrapped around our feet

Asus2                           G
we built the fire evermore with winter beating at the door

C                                  Am F
brother's eyes were getting heavier

C                            Am F
his bony hands cold and white

C                                              Am           Asus2
and I could hear his ragged breathing like the wind along a knife

Asus2                        G                          F
there beside him through the night, in the hum of candlelight

Asus2                C
I no longer felt the time

C
brother woke just after midnight

Am
and he didn't make a sound

C                                                               Am
and as he climbed from out of bed with severed rings around his head

Asus2           G         C
his feet didn't touch the ground

F
I could feel it then

G
a tiny miracle

Am
so I followed him

C
into the woods

F
crossed beneath the trees

G          Am
but only I left my prints in tow

C
he was afloat

F
found a lonely tree

G        Am
and tied himself within its limbs

C
and he said to me these words:

F
"don't you fear for me,

G                          C
I am where I'm supposed to be."

C
and when I woke he was gone

F
and I was wrapped in blankets on the lawn

Am                      Asus2
the sky was blue and my skin matched the hue

F
and I could hear mother crying in your room

G
from here on out I wear this face for both of us
