(ver. 1)
Hey Rosetta
G Am Em
C

G               Am         Em
through the hem of evening 
G               Am         Em
into the flesh of the night 
G               Am         Em
you step out to receive them 
              C
in the bruising light 

G               Am         Em
you leave your bed of novels 
G               Am         Em
you leave your hovering crown
G               Am         Em
you leave your wit and your mettle 
          C
and you come down 

D

        C         Em     D
but it's only a minute then 
        C         Em     D
til the hole in the canvas spreads 
        C         Em                   G Am Em
and it grows til there's nothing left 

G Am Em
C

G               Am         Em
so if you even remember 
G               Am         Em
me after all that will come 
G               Am         Em
think of all i intended 
          C
not what i've done 

G               Am         Em
see me like an arrow 
G               Am         Em
still upon the bow 
G               Am         Em
set to the heart of the target 
                C
hanging bright above 

D

        C         Em     D
but it's only a minute then 
        C         Em     D
til the shot is released and sent 
        C         Em            G Am Em
and lost to the shifting wind 

G Am D

(key change!)

D               G              Bm              A
oh they don't know you, not like i do, not like us, harriet 
D               G              Bm              A
but they would love you, just like i do, if they could, harriet 
D               G              Bm              A
cause what you are, and what you want, are so far apart, and they're travelling on 
D               G              Bm              A
oh what you are is staggering drunk, but i'll pick you up and i'll carry you off 

(key change!)

E               A              C#m              B
oh they don't know you, not like i know you, not like us, harriet 
E               A              C#m              B
but they would love you, just like i love you, if they could, harriet
