[Chorus]
Em A
I should have known better
G
To see what I could see
C
My black shroud
Bm
Holding down my feelings
Am
A pillar for my enemies
Em A
I should have wrote a letter
G
And grieve what I happen to grieve
C
My black shroud
Bm
I never trust my feelings
Am
I waited for the remedy
(Am)
[Verse]
Am C D
When I was three three maybe four
D Em Em D G
She left us at that video store
G D Am Am D G
Be my rest be my fantasy
G D Am
Be my rest be my fantasy
(Am)
[Instrumental]
Em A G C Bm Am
[Chorus]
Em A
I'm light as a feather
G
I'm bright as the Oregon breeze
C
My black shroud
Bm
Frightened by my feelings
Am
I only wanna be a relief
Em A
No I'm not a go-getter
G
The demon had a spell on me
C
My black shroud
Bm
Captain of my feeling
Am
The only thing I wanna believe
[Verse]
Am C D
When I was three and free to explore
D Em Em D G
I saw her face on the back of the door
G D Am Am D G
Be my rest be my fantasy
G D Am
Be my rest be my fantasy
(Am)
[Instrumental]
G C D Em D C Am D Em D G
[Chorus]
G C
I should have known better
D
Nothing can be changed
Em
The past is still the past
D C
The bridge to nowhere
C Am
I should have wrote a letter
D Em D G
Explaining what I feel that empty feeling
[Bridge]
G C D
Don't back down concentrate on seeing
D Em D C
The breakers in the bar the neighbour's greeting
C Am
My brother had a daughter
D Em D G
The beauty that she brings illumination
G C D
Don't back down there is nothing left
D Em D C
The breakers in the bar no reason to live
C Am
I'm a fool in the fetter
D Em D G
Rose of Aaron's beard where you can reach me
[Outro]
G C D
Don't back down nothing can be changed
D Em D C
Cantilever bridge the drunken sailor
C Am
My brother had a daughter
D Em D
The beauty that she brings illumination
G
illumination.
