No Rest

  F
I used to be a king alone
     C
Like Solomon or Rehoboam
    F
And in this, a corvée day
    C
Did jealous keep my picture frames
    Em             G          C
And everything did oxidate in place

    F
But then you came, a single cell
     C
With astrolabe and carousel
    F
And algebra and symmetry
    C
And none of this was lost on me
    Bb Bb   Bb       Bb   Bb  Bb      F
And I could see how still I'd been before
   Bb Bb   Bb   Bb Bb    Bb       F
If I don't eat, I don't sleep at all.

                 Bb
Like limbs in procession,
             Dm
Like so many birds,
                Bb
Stampeding like oxen,
                 Dm
Our hearts are a herd

                   C
I loved you in the bed,
                   Dm                C
I loved you in the best way possible,
                   Dm
I loved you in the bed,

F               A           Bb
Did you see the light in my heart?
F               A           Bb
Did you see the sweat on my brow?
F               A          Bb
Did you see the fear in my heart?
F              A           Bb
Did you see me bleeding it out?

                   C
I loved you in the bed,
                   Dm                C
I loved you in the best way possible,
                   Dm                Bb
I loved you in the best way possible,
                   Dm                C
I loved you in the best way possible,
                   Dm                C
I loved you in the best way possible,
                         F
I loved you in the bed.
