Hold Your Tongue

[Verse]

C#m B C#m

You've been pretty since the day 
                C#m B C#m
that you were born
So the roots of your beautiful hair
C#m B C#m

Drew all the water that your body 
         C#m B
could hold
             A
So when your soul needed water, no 
water was there.

[Verse 2]

C#m B C#m

You shed words like so much dead 
  C#m B C#m
skin
They gather up like dust against 
     C#m B C#m
walls
They kick up when someone comes in
C#m B

                A
So when they're looking for 
something they find nothing at all.


[Chorus]

E         B       C#m    B/D#
Hold your goddamn tongue
E      B       A
You forget yourself.
E           B      C#m  B/D#
How could I be the one
E                       B       
If you're wrapped round someone 
A
else?


[Verse 2]

C#m B C#m

And I really don't know which feels 
   C#m B C#m
worse
                            C#m B 
To be a fool or be with a liar.
C#m

I just know that heart once soaked 
       C#m B
and cursed
   A
Is that much harder to set on fire.


[Coda]

            A   E/G# B
And I won't let this die
           E    B   C#m
Until I've seen you cry
         F#/A#   A
A single tear to show

There's water in your soul.
