The Oh Hellos – Boreas (Ukulele)

         A            G
With my back on the floor

        C                F
Cold linoleum icing my growing pains

             A                   G
Watch the ceiling fan turn its shape again

      C                 F
My threads are coming loose

           A         G
Yeah, I'm one spoon away

        C                    F
From setting the ends of my hair on fire

          A             G
If I'm kindling for a little while

     C               F
At least I'd feel of use

  A            G         C
Maybe then my breath could embody

     G      A
A wildfire starting

      G            C      F
I'd sweep up the forest floor

                G                C
And my body'd breathe life into the corners

             A
Be a darker soil

        A                G
Making lists, folding laundry

         C            F
Keeping tidy with my radio show

         A         G
I'd be lying if I told you

             C      F
I'm keeping tidy anymore

         A            G
Yeah, I swing from believing

       C                   F
That maybe my working will all pay off

       A                        G
To considering drinking with Molotov

      C              F
I'm halfway out the door

 A              G          C
Maybe then my breath could embody

      G      A
A wildfire starting

     G             C     F
I'd sweep up the forest floor

                G                     C
And my body'd breathe life into the corners

             A
Be a darker soil

  C
Promise me

             F            G
That you'll start where I end

         C         F
And I promise to give you

A      G     C
Everything I am

     G
(On and on and on)

         A            F
We'll go on and on and on

        G
In the end

       F
All I hope for

      C             F
Is to be a bit of warmth for you

             C              G
When there's not a lot of warmth left

     A
To go around
