Vessel

G

Verse 1:

G
I knelt at the sink,
Em           D/F#
Like a priest or a prince
D               C
Maybe I'm to be king
               G
And they're waiting at Westminster


G
And the walls are paper thin
Em                  D/F#
I hear the neighbours arguing
D                    C
Could you lower your voice?
             G
I would sell my unborn daughter 
(maybe)

Em   D/F#  G



Verse 2:

G
We didn't stage a passion play
Em            D/F#
Didn't change our given names
D               C
Or waltz to our bed
        G
Or need to make a scene


G
But I see your skin, paler now
Em          D/F#
Than the host in your mouth
C               D          Em
Where the truth never seems to be

Now the burning branch never

speaks to me

It whispers like

Chorus:

C                     G
I don't wanna be your vessel any 
more
D                     Em      
I don't wanna be your vessel any 
     G
more
Am                  G
These are my words, this is my mouth
D                     Em       G
I don't wanna be your vessel now


Am
And I may not see the future

But I see its lonely architect
Em                D
At the door of my house
Am                    G
I don't wanna be your vessel any 
more
D                  Em             
I don't wanna be a vessel of your

Verse 3:

G
Truly I never dreamt
Em             D/F#
Of all the dumb accoutrement
D                  C
I would want for myself
              G
For the shelf


G
I laid it all at your feet
Em          D/F#
On your neck and your cheek
C               D               
But the burning branch wouldn't 
Em
speak to me



Chorus:

C                     G
I don't wanna be your vessel any 
more
D                     Em      
I don't wanna be your vessel any 
     G
more
Am                  G
These are my rules, this is my house
D                     Em       G
I don't wanna be your vessel now


Am
And I may not see the future

But I see its lonely architect
Em                D
At the foot of my bed
Am                    G
I don't wanna be your vessel any 
more
D                    Em         G
Didn't wanna be your vessel anyway
