Chords

[Intro] C G Am G/Am F [Verse]

         C              G
When the bodies, in the basement

Am G/Am F Are lit by the light from the small, window

        C                    G
And its silent, safe for the grieving

Am G/Am F And the winds, and the skin, and the warm

    C             G
And ohhh, all the wreckage

Am G/Am F It lives, in the hands, as they fold

              C                    G
That’s when I noticed, that I’m in love with you

Am G/Am F And not just the light from the room [Chorus]

       F                     C
It’s a maddening time, to be searching for love

     G                             Am
When everything is falling apart

    F                      C
And who knows what, we are capable of

       G                     Am 
In the revenants harder than hearts

[Verse]

     C          G
Your dad, is in the doorway

Am G/Am F And you put on such a show

               C                      G
That’s when he noticed, that you’re a woman

Am G/Am F A not just a child anymore [Chorus]

    F                     C
It’s a maddening time, to be searching for love

     G                             Am
When everything is falling apart

    F                      C
And who knows what, we are capable of

       G                     Am 
In the revenants harder than hearts

[Outro}

        C              G
When the bodies, in the basement

Am G/Am F Are lit by the light from the small, window

              C                   G
That’s when I noticed, that I’m in love with you

Am G/Am F And not just the light from the room
