Ivy

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

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

Bm
I wish to know
    G               Em                 Bm
The fatal flaw that makes you long 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                     D
My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
Bm               A4              A
Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
D     Bm
Oh, I can't
A                G                D
Stop you putting roots in my 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           Bm
Spring breaks loose, the time is near
              A                D
What would he do if he found us out?
Em             Bm
Crescent moon, coast is clear
G                        A            Bm
Spring breaks loose, but so does fear
           A               D
He's gonna burn this house to the ground

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

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

   D   G  A4  A
In you
