Magnolia

(início)

Dm              Am             Am              G
Your heartbeat is pulsing at night in your chest
It's gold and it's glowing with all the life you have left
I received your words from hospitals where you felt alone
Your words like smoke, they made me sick but they kept me warm
F           C            G            G
Run where you'll be safe
Through the garden gates
F           C             G (strum once then stop)
To the shelter of magnolias
Dm               Am            Am              G
Eyes like sea glass, so weathered and worn
From all they've seen of adolescence torn
The lovers who have tainted you, they pulled you into the night
They touched your skin with velvet gloves and made you feel alive
F           C            G            G
Run where you'll be safe
Through the garden gates
F           C            G            G
To the shelter of magnolias
F           C            G            G
There's not much time
The blush in the sky
F           C            G            G
begins to fade
Am        F                C
You are weathered and worn
E
Your petals soft and torn
Am  F      E  E
The fading color
Am        F                C
You have bent your shoulders
E
To hold the weight of the world
Am  F      E  E
You will surely shatter

To the shelter of magnolias
F           C            G            G
There's not much time
The blush in the sky
F           C            G            G
begins to fade
