WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Lady Lamb The Beekeeper - Southernly Chords | Ver. 1
Standard tuning
Capo 2 (or 1)
second fret,
the other on the first fret. One version also has extra lyrics. Also I have no idea what
she is saying
during some parts so the lyrics are probably wrong.
Here is a basic interpretation of the strumming pattern:
C F
e|--0--x--0---x--0----x--0----x--0--|
B|--1--x--1---x--1----x--1----x--1--|
G|--0--x--0---x--0h2--x--0h2--x--0--|

C
I have an unborn son
F
I have an unborn son
C F
and he has not begun to become one with anyone yet
Em F
he's a box in the closet
Em G G7
he's but a thought in my head, oh
C F
and I've seen the way you see me
C F
I know the sheets on your bed oh
C F
so don't pretend you don't see me
G G7
stop playing dumb or dead
Dm F
oh I've been reborn southernly
C E
I've been your dearest friend
Dm F
I've been alone, lost, and captured(?)
G G7
I'm buying mustard bread(?) oh
C F (x2)
C F
and yes I do long to be taken
C F
to the sea of despair
C F
where I can tread through the waters oh
C F
deep blue and threadbare
Em F
give me your heart as a home
Em F
I'm a nomad and I am so lonesome
Em F
give me your eyes for to roam(?)
G G7
and the wave of your hair to be baptized in
C F (x2)
Dm F
you are mountains to cross
C E
you are rivers to bathe by
Dm F G G7
you are leading me on down by the breath of your battle cry
C F (x2)
Dm F
whether your steps are running towards
C E
or whether they're running away from
Dm F
you are the apple, you are a warrior
C E
you know I would never put you in danger
C F
just up on my shoulders
C F
just up on my shoulders
C F
just up on my shoulders
G G7
steadfast and skyward
end on C
