What Wild Things Were

Dm         F          Am           G
I still remember the turn of the leaves
         Dm             F         Am          G
And the first signs of blossom on our cherry trees
    Dm            F          Am      G
And I still hear rivers from old memories
  Dm             F            Am        G
I still dare at starlight, but only in dreams


CHORUS:
           Dm  F        Am           G
'Cause we brooooke the home that we had
             Dm  F          Am        G
And there's nooooo, there's no going back
                      Dm
To when things were alive
                    F
And blue could describe
               Am                 G
The colour the sky was before it burned

         Dm                   F            Am  G
When we still woke up to the sound of the birds
        Dm                         F           Am  G
How we didn't have to wonder what wild things were


VERSE::
      Dm          F           Am            G
I'm scared of forgetting how things used to be
          Dm            F           Am              G
Like the days we could lay down on grass that was green
       Dm           F           Am             G
And I miss how the winter once painted these streets
         Dm             F        Am        G
And the sound that the snow made under my feet

      G     Am      F           G     Am    F
Well, if I have a daughter how will I ever tell her
      G          Am     F
The ghosts that came before her

       F        Am            G
Just broke the home that she has
            F           Am        G
And there's no, there's no going back


CHORUS:
                      Dm
So when things were alive

The colour the sky was before it burned

            Dm                   F            Am  G
How she'll never wake up to the sound of the birds
              Dm                          F           Am  G
