Willow Chords & Lyrics by Emilie Autumn
Willow
guitar chords lyrics
G
Willow, weep for me
D
Bow your tallest tree
Am
Down to the infamous hands
C D
Of someone no one understands
G
I'm not unique in this
D
It's based on none but my mistake
Am
At night I lie awake
C D
Thinking of all the hearts I'd happily break
Am
It's cruel, I know
D
At least they tell me so
Am G
Well someone lock me up and throw away the key
C
Because I'm not ashamed, oh no
D
Oh, willow
G
That I only write love songs
D
To those whom I don't love
Am
I only reach for him
C D
Who's tied to someone else's glove
G
That which I hold inside
D
Which I admire and deride
C D
Which I protect and hide is yours
G
Willow, weep for me
D
Don't think I don't see
Am
This life I'm living in two
C D
But still it's something I must do
G
I'm not unique in this
D
Nor am I special, sweet or kind
Am
I court a thousand smiles
C D
Yet I keep my own to hide behind
Am
It's cruel I know
D
At least they tell me so
Am G
Well someone lock me up and throw away the key
C
Because I'm not ashamed, oh no
D
Oh, willow
G
That I only write love songs
D
To those whom I don't love
Am
I only reach for him
C D
Who's tied to someone else's glove
G
That which I hold inside
D
Which I admire and deride
C D
Which I protect and hide is yours
Am G
Slander and dissention
D Am
They're parlour games to me
G D
Papers overrun with lies too mad to mention
Am G
You say they never hurt you
D Am
No consequence, I'm happy
G
We're much too far above it all
D Am
But oh no, that's not true
Em
These wicked pastimes take their toll
Am
These tyrant vices break your soul
Em
Deliver me from all I am
G
And all I never want to be
Am
I love you (Oh willow, willow, willow)
D
Doubt me not
C E
Rewrite this plot for all to see
G
And I only write love songs
D
To those whom I don't love
Am
I only reach for him
C D
Who's tied to someone else's glove
G
That which I hold inside
D
Which I admire and deride
C D
Which I protect and hide is yours
Am G D Am
Bend your branches to the ground and hold me close
G D Am
Let me harmonize with all that�s good in you
G D
Share your sympathy and weep for me
Am
Oh, willow, heal the hearts I've broken
C D
Make me pure and start my song anew
G D Am C D
G
For I only write love songs
D
To those whom I don't love
Am
I only reach for him
C D
Who's tied to someone else's glove
G
That which I hold inside
D
Which I admire and deride
C D
Which I protect and hide is yours
G
Is yours, is yours
