Cosmia Chords

(ver. 1)
Joanna Newsom
Finaly, here is Cosmia by the Great Joanna Newsome. This is my
 favorite song by her and I waited forever for it lol. So I decided to make it
myself. These Are the chords (I would Suddgest using mostly bars), and I am working on
tab, but it is extremely!
hard on guitar. When I finish, I will post that too. For now, Enjoi! ( By the way, if I
an x where the chord should be, it means play nothing)


Intro:
Bm    G    Bm    G   ...Or some of the tab:
E|-----9---------------------------9---------------------|
B|--------10--------------------------10-----------------|
G|------------11------13------------------11------13-----|
D|--9-------------12--------------------------12---------|
A|-----------------------------10------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
You Can Play This In Basicaly all Bm-G Parts


Bm            G              Bm          G
  Bm           G          Bm
When you ate i saw your eyelashes
Saw them shake like wind on rushes
In the corn field when she called me
Moths surround me
Thought they'd drown me

Bm          G             Bm         G
  And i miss your precious heart
  And i miss your precious heart

Bm     G       A       Bm


Bm                       G
Dry rose petals, red round circles
A                              Bm
Frame your eyes, and stain your knuckles
Dry rose petals, red round circles
Frame your eyes, and stain your knuckles

D     Bm     G     Em    D    Bm
G   Bm G    D

D                                  Bm                  G
   And all those lonely nights down by the river
Em                                D                      X
Brought me bread and water, water in
Bm                        Em         G
But though i tried so hard my little darling
Bm          G                                           D
I couldn't keep the night from comin' in


And all those lonely nights down by the river
Brought me bread and water, kith and kin
But in the quiet hour when i am sleepin'
I couldn't keep the night from comin' in

(Instrumental)

            G
  Beneath the porch light we've all been circlin'
Beat our duck's hearts, singe our flower wings
But in the corner, somethin's happenin'
Wild cosmia - what have you seen?

Bm                       G                     Bm
           G
Water Were your limbs, and the fire was your hair

Bm                      G                     Bm
          G

Bm                              G
And in the moonlight caught your eye
Bm                                        G
And you rose through the air
Bm              G                           Bm               G
Well if you seen true light, then this is my prayer,
Bm                           G                            Bm
Will you call me when you get there?

Bm     G              Bm          G
And i miss your precious heart

Bm
And  miss
G
And  miss   x7
Bm                       G
And miss your  heart

Bm    G       Bm     G

Bm          G          Bm         G
But release your precious heart
Bm              G          Bm         G
To its feast, for precious heart


Bm     G     Bm    G

 Dum Dum...........

Well, there you go, I took me the whole night, so I hope you like it!
