[Intro]
Dm G Dm G Dm G Dm Cmaj7 G* x2
Hmmmmmm~
[Verse 1]
Dm G
Dear friend, I write to you swiftly
Dm G
With scarlet ink and a woe
Dm
My note will be fleeting
G
But promise while reading
Dm G*
To hang on to every word
Dm G Dm G Dm G Dm G
Hmmmmmm~
[Verse 2]
Dm G
All the days are forgetting
Dm G
They told me I was alone
Dm
But leafing through pages
G
Does nothing for aged
Dm G*
Fingers that work to the bone
[Chorus]
Dm G
Through the archway
Cmaj7 Am*
Where the book spines fold
Dm G*
They will show you the way
Dm G Dm G Dm G Dm G
Hmmmmmm~
[Verse 3]
Dm G
This study cramped and musty
Dm G
A coffin to call my abode
Dm
Each cold glance I've earned
G
Passing through me I've learned
Dm G
Not to trust those that make it a home
[Verse 4]
Dm G
I met a ghost that tended a garden
Dm G
They showed me their most prized marrow
Dm
Tendons and teeth
G
Amongst pale meadowsweet
Dm G
Seeds of doubt are beginning to grow
[Outro] - Start Strumming
Dm G
Through the archway
Cmaj7 Am*
Footprints cremated to smoke
Dm G* Cmaj7*
They will show you the way
