A Murder of One
guitar chords lyrics
Capo 4th Fret
Intro: D, Dsus2, G x 2
A
Blue morning blue morning
G
wrapped in strands of fist and bone
A
Curiosity, kitten,
G
Doesn't have to mean you're on your own
A
You can look outside your window
G
He doesn't have to know
A
We can talk awhile, baby
G
We can take it nice and slow
D Dsus2 G
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
D Dsus2 G
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
A
Are you happy when you're sleeping?
G
Does he keep you safe and warm?
A
Does he tell you when you're sorry?
G
Does he tell you when you're wrong?
A
I've been watching you for hours
G
It's been years since we were born
A
We were perfect when we started
G
I've been wondering where we've gone
D Dsus2 G
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
D Dsus2 G
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
A
I dreamt I saw you walking
G
up a hillside in the snow
A
Casting shadows on the winter sky
G
as you stood there counting crows
A
One for sorrow Two for joy
G
Three for girls and four for boys
A
Five for silver, Six for gold and
G
Seven for a secret never to be told
A
There's a bird that nests inside you
G
Sleeping underneath your skin
A
When you open up your wings to speak
G
I wish you'd let me in
D Dsus2 G
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
D Dsus2 G
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
D
Open up your eyes
Dsus2 G
You can see the flames, flames flames
D
of your wasted life
Dsus2 G
You should be ashamed
You don't want to waste your life, now baby
You don't want to waste your life, now darlin'
(repeat 3x)
D G
Change, change, change
(repeat 3x)
D
I walk along these hillsides In the summer 'neath the sunshine
G
I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me
(repeat 3x)
D G
Change, change, change
(repeat 3x)
