Ivy

Bm
How's one to know?
    G                  Em         
I'd meet you where the spirit 
      Bm
meets the bones
     G               D
In a faith forgotten land
Bm
In from the snow
     G                     
Your touch brought forth an 
 Em           Bm
incandescent glow
G             D        A
Tarnished but so grand

        Bm                         
And the old widow goes to the stone
 G
 every day
      Em                Bm
But I don't, I just sit here and 
wait
G                A D
Grieving for the living

    Bm
Oh, goddamn
   A                G          
My pain fits in the palm of your 
           D
freezing hand
Bm               A4              
Taking mine, but it's been promised 
A
to another
D     Bm
Oh, I can't
A                G        
Stop you putting roots in my 
   D
dreamland
   Bm                   A
My house of stone, your ivy grows
            Bm           G  Em  
And now I'm covered in you
Bm  G  A


Bm
I wish to know
    G               Em            
The fatal flaw that makes you long
     Bm
 to be
   G             D
Magnificently cursed
Bm          A
He's in the room
     G             Em             D
Your opal eyes are all I wish to see
   G              A
He wants what's only yours

    Bm
Oh, goddamn
   A                G          
My pain fits in the palm of your 
           D
freezing hand
Bm               A4              
Taking mine, but it's been promised

D     Bm
Oh, I can't
A                G        
Stop you putting roots in my 
        D
dreamland
   Bm                   A
My house of stone, your ivy grows
    Em
And now I'm covered

Bm            D
Clover blooms in the fields
G                        A       
Spring breaks loose, the time is 
    Bm
near
              A                D
What would he do if he found us out?
Em             Bm
Crescent moon, coast is clear
G                        A       
Spring breaks loose, but so does 
     Bm
fear
           A               D
He's gonna burn this house to the 
ground

Bm
How's one to know?
    G                  Em         
I'd live and die for moments that 
   Bm
we stole
   G              A
On begged and borrowed time
   D         Bm
So tell me to run
   G               Em             
Or dare to sit and watch what 
    Bm
we'll become
    G                  D
And drink my husband's wine

    Bm
Oh, goddamn
   A                G          
My pain fits in the palm of your 
           D
freezing hand
Bm               A4              
Taking mine, but it's been promised 
A
to another
D     Bm
Oh, I can't
A                G        
Stop you putting roots in my 
   D
dreamland
   Bm                   A
My house of stone, your ivy grows
            D           Bm  A4 A
And now I'm covered in you
    G       D     G A4
And I'm covered

   D            Bm
So yeah, it's a fire
       G                   A4
It's a goddamn blaze in the dark
        D
And you started it
            G  A4
You started it
   Bm
So yeah, it's a war
         G                   A
It's the goddamn fight of my life
            D
And you started it
            G  A4
You started it

      Bm
Oh, I can't
A                Em       
Stop you putting roots in my 
    Bm
dreamland
   A                    D
My house of stone, your ivy grows
    D
And now I'm covered
   Bm  A  G     D  Bm  D  A  D  G  A
In you,     in you
G                  D   G  A4  A
Now I'm covered in you
   D   G  A4  A
In you
