Goose Eggs Chords

(ver. 1)
Joanna Newsom
B               F#                      A
What we built, at the kiln that won't be stilled
        G
Did not set well:
B                       F#
The old veil of desire
                        A
Like the vessels that we fired
        G
Fell thin as eggshells


Bm                      D                       
And every season, somebody burns
Downtown, taking turns-

C                               G
Taking a bus, to take a train and just plain vamoose

Bm                                      D
Now the wind blows coals over the hills. Honey
I've been paying my bills

C                                       G
But honey it's been a long time since I've come to any use

Bm                                      
And it hurt me bad, when I heard the news
D
That you'd got that call, and could not refuse
A                                               E
(A goose, alone, I suppose, can know the loneliness of geese
E                               D                       A               F#m
Who never find their peace, whether North, or South, or West, or East, West or East;
E
And I could never find my way
D                                       A
To being the kind of friend you seemed to need in me
G               F
Till the needing had ceased.)

[repeat]
