Intro: D
Verse
F#m E
And of places in between houses
D
Where the redwoods could swallow you whole
F#m E D
Swollen appendages catch in the knots of radiance collapsing inwards
F#m E
It’s there I replace your face with flowers
D
Sow seed in the hem of your dress
F#m E
In glowing favor you’ll bloom
D
So I can scatter you around the room
Pre-Chorus
F#m E D
In hopes to keep love near the places we once kept warm
F#m E D
And of spaces between bedsores
F#m
Where cherubs count our hairs and pours
E D
Lord, let her in or don’t let her leave
[Refrão]
F#m E D
Find a reason not to leave
F#m E D
Find a reason not to leave
Instrumental: F#m E D
[Refrão]
F#m E D
Find a reason not to leave
F#m E D
Find a reason not to leave
