She who walks alone in life

I am only as old as I've been told

F#
Now I'm playing for time


B               G
Darling take me to the lakeside

A            Bm
Wash my body well

B                 G
I am holy now the water's hit me

Em
Broken from your spell


                  Bm       A  Bm
Cause I was on my hands and knees

               Bm    A  Em
Bending at the heart of me


B                 G
We don't know the weight of all

A                Bm
The words we say now

B                         G
In a few more years, with open ears

F#
Would you still say them aloud?


B            G
They who walk alone in life

A           Bm
They are of sound mind

B                       G
We can only get hurt by things we've heard

Em
And lovers are unkind

                     Bm   A   Bm
But did you hear the sun go down?

            Bm   A    Em
Silent as a child I found

              Bm     A     Em
Hiding in the midnight of my soul

 G            A          Bm
I am ready now to let her go


B             G 
She who walks alone in life

A       Bm
She by herself

        B             G
We are only as old as we've been told

F#
And I'm not ready for the shelf


B               G
Darling take me to the lakeside

A            Bm
Lay my body down

B                    G
I am holy now while skin is touching

Em
Let the sun go out


           Bm    A    Bm
I am on my hands and knees

           Bm    A    Em  
Bending at the heart of me

               Bm    A    Bm
Hiding in the midnight of my soul

                      G     A        Bm
Please don't break the shell that I call home
