UN SALUDO DESDE TENERIFE, ESPA�A ;)

INTRO: Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-C

VERSE:
Cmaj7    C
Fourteen years
Cmaj7  C 
Thirty minutes
Fsus2/E           Fsus2* 
Fifteen seconds I've
Fsus2/E     Fsus2*
Held this grudge

Eleven songs
Four full journals
Thoughts of punishment
I've expended

Not in contact
Not a letter
Such communication
Telepathic

You've been vilified
Used as fodder
You deserve a piece
Of every record


PRE-CHORUS:
Dm                   Am     Asus2
But who's it hurting now?
Dm                   Am     Asus2
Who's the one that's stuck?
Dm                 Am           
Who's it torturing now
Asus2      Am      G           G
With an antique knot in her stomach?


CHORUS:
C           
I want to be big and let go
C
Of this grudge that's grown old
C 
All this time I've not known 
C
How to rest this bygone
C
I wanna be soft and resolved
C
Clean of slate and released
           G                   Fmaj9        
I wanna forgive for the both of us


VERSE:
Like an abandoned house
Dusty covered
Furniture
Still intact

If I visit it now
Do I simply re-live it
Somehow 
gratuitous


PRE-CHORUS:
But who's still aching now?
Who's tired of her own voice?
Who is it weighing down 
With no gift from time of said healing


CHORUS:
I want to be big and let go
Of this grudge that's grown old
All this time I've not known 
How to rest this bygone
I wanna be soft and resolved
Clean of slate and released
I wanna forgive for the both of us


BRIDGE:
       Am        Am7
Maybe as I cut the cord
Fmaj9               
Veils will lift from my eyes
Am        Am7
Maybe as I lay this to rest
   G                         G*
Dead weight off my shoulders will rise


VERSE:
Here I sit
Much determined
Ever ill-equipped
To draw this curtain

How this has entertained
Validated
And has served me well
Ever the victim


PRE-CHORUS:
But who's done whining now?
Who's ready to put down
This load I've carried longer 
than I had cared to remember


CHORUS: (x2)
I want to be big and let go
Of this grudge that's grown old
For this life of me I've not known 
How to rest this bygone
I wanna be soft and resolved
Clean of slate and released
I wanna forgive for the both of us
