Solitary Daughter

A

[Verse 1]
A
With the conviction of the woman you
 made me,

I find
A
Blades of grass from the island you 
lent me,

I find
E               D
On every floor, in every drawer
A
Though I'm not an island, I'm a body
 of water
A
Jeweled in the evening, a solitary 
daughter
E                     D
If picked at by noon, by midnight 
I'm ruined


[Chorus]
Bm                                
Leave me alone to the books and 
        A
the radio snow
E                                 
Leave me alone to the charcoal and
                A
 the dancing shadow

[Verse 2]
A
If each blade of grass was meant 
here for me
A
Split apart, sliced, and wedged in 
for me
E                     D
Who's gonna treat it? I'm not going 
to need it


[Chorus]
Bm                                
Leave me alone to the books and 
        A
the radio snow
E                                 
Leave me alone to the charcoal and
                A
 the dancing shadow

A
I am a lake, I don't need to be 
watered
A
I am an ocean, I don't need to 
barter


[Interlude]
E
I play with the moon, my only friend
A
It pushes it pulls me, I don't pay 
rent
Asus
I don't need the walls to bury my 
grave
A
I don't need your company to feel 
saved
E
I don't need the sunlight, my 
curtains don't draw
A
I don't need objects to keep or to 
pawn
Asus
I don't want your pity, concern, or 
your scorn
A
I'm calm by my lonesome, I feel 
right at home
E
And when the wind blows I get to 
dancing
A
My fun is the rhythm of air when 
it's prancing

                    -repeat-

Leave me alone to the charcoal and
