Intro:
Em C Em C
Em G Am C
Em G
I was lost in the lakes
Am C
And the shapes that your body makes
Em G
That your body makes, that your body makes
Am C
That your body makes
D C D C
Em G
The mountains said I could find you here
Am C
They whispered the snow and the leaves in my ear
Em G
I traced my finger along your trails
Am C
Your body was the map, I was lost in it
G D
Floating over your rocky spine
Am C D
The glaciers made you, and now you�re mine
G D
Floating over your rocky spine
Am C D
The glaciers made you, and now you�re mine
Em G Am C
Em G Am C
Em G
I was moving across your frozen veneer
Am C
The sky was dark but you were clear
Em G
Could you feel my footsteps
Am C
And would you shatter, would you shatter, would you
D C D C
Em G
And with your soft fingers between my claws
Am C
Like purity against resolve
Em G
I could tell, then and there, that we were formed from the clay
Am C
And came from the rocks for the earth to display
Em G
They told me to be careful up there
Am C
Where the wind blows a venomous rage through your hair
Em G
They told me to be careful up there
Am C
Where the wind rages through your hair
Em G Am C
Em G Am C
