Thrice – Still Life (Guitar)

B      C
On the mantelpiece

F         D
There's a scrap of leather

B      C
Like a half remembered

F        D
truth or lie

F    D
Of a sunlit garden

B     C                    F
And a sword that seemed to burn

     D
With light

C
The way

          B
Is closed now

               C
And I can't go home the way

          B
Is closed now

               C    B C B
And I can't go home

B        C
Near the fireplace

F          D
Black with soot and sorrow

B       C            F     D
And the absence of synecdoche

B         C
There's a whetted axe

F      D
With a weathered handle

B       C
And the weight of it

   F       D
Is dear to me

C
The way

          B
Is closed now

               C
And I can't go home the way

          B
Is closed now

               A C A C A
And I can't go home

    C       A
But what if I

              C Em C Em
If I just let go
