G
[Chorus]
G E
I know you are there
C Am
In the light, in the air
G Em
I know you won't leave
C Am
The dirt, or the trees
[Verse 1]
G
Last night I closed my eyes
Em
And you did come to me
C
You stood above my bed
Am
Tucking in the sheets
G
Your hands were strong and warm
Em
And smelled like cigarettes
C
The kiss upon my forehead
A
I would not forget
[Chorus]
G E
I know you are there
C Am
In your books, in your chair
G Em
I know you won't leave
C A
The windows, or the leaves
[Verse 2]
G
When I was young you hit me
Em
Said I had no gift
C
Tounge too small and teeth too pretty
A
I'd never sing or lick
G
And so I tried my hardest
Em
To live up to you
C
If I just loved you enough
Am
You'd come to love me too
[Bridge]
G Em
I wonder if you hurt me in your fever dream
C
Did you wake in some strange room
A
Thinking you'd fled the scene
G Em
Empty bottle dangling like a heavy stone
C
Having just seen your own father
Am
In your boyhood home
[Chorus]
G Em
I know you are there
C Am
In my bones, in my hair
G Em
I know you won't leave
C A
The soles of my feet
G Em C Am D (x2)
[Bridge]
G E
If I could sing, I'd sing an endless song for you
C Am
My lily throat would tear I'd do so long for you
G Em
Magpies would take the sounds I make into their beaks
C Am
And find you in the darkness
They're my words it speaks
[Otro]
G
I forgive you
E
I forgive you
C
I forgive you
Am A
I forgive you
G
I forgive you
E
I forgive you
C
I forgive you
Am A
I forgive you, I forgive you
G
I forgive you
E
I forgive you
C
I forgive you
Am A
I forgive you
G
I forgive you
E
I forgive you
C
I forgive you
Am A
I forgive you
G
I forgive you
