Paper Route - Calm My Soul Chords

[Intro]

C Dm Bb Fsus4 F (2x)

[Verse 1]

C                       Dm
I've seen too much this year
Bb               Fsus4 F
I long for it to pass
C               Dm 
The type of memories
Bb                   Fsus4 F
That turn a heart to glass
C                  Dm
My mother named me well
Bb                   F
My father worked the land
C                    Dm
In dust my ribs were formed
Bb              Fsus4 F
And I'll return again

[Instrumental]

C Dm Bb Fsus4 F (3x)

[Chorus]

C     Dm  Bb   F
Calm  my  soul

[Verse 2]

C                     Dm
We are burning up the earth
Bb                 F
It's body and it's breath
C                   Dm
We hurt the ones we love
Bb                   F
And we wound what we protect, God

[Chorus 2]

C     Dm  Bb    Fsus4 F
Calm  my  soul
C     Dm  Bb    Fsus4 F
Calm  my  soul
C    Dm      Bb     Fsus4 F
Who  bleeds  more
C     Dm  Bb    Fsus4 F
Calm  my  soul
 
[Bridge]

C
I have walked behind for too long
Dm
Now I will lead the way
Bb
I have strayed
Bb
I have strayed
F
Strayed away
C
If you've loved in haste
Dm
Thinking only of the cost
Bb
Every river leads to land
F
Every lover to a cross
C
Your mind and heart at war
Dm
And they thrash inside your lips
Bb
Like an arrow passing through
F
Your tongue can kill or it can kiss
 
[Chorus 3]

C     Dm  Bb    Fsus4 F
Calm  my  soul
C    Dm      Bb     Fsus4 F
Who  bleeds  more
C     Dm  Bb    Fsus4 F
Calm  my  soul
C    Dm      Bb     Fsus4 F
Who  bleeds  more...
