[Intro]
Dm Csus4 Bb
[Verse 1]
Dm Csus4
Basking in early April sun
Bb
Shedding your skin in more ways than one
Dm
You turn to me briefly then ask me discreetly
Csus4
How can I live for my past self
Bb
When they're in a box up on my shelf
Dm
Beleaguered by rust, covered in dust
[Chorus]
Csus4
Teach me the melodies
Bb
Of the songs you used to sing
Dm Csus4 Bb
When you were sev- en- teen
Dm Csus4 Bb Csus4
Are you still sev- en- teen
[Verse 2]
Dm Csus4
Do you remember in the fall
Bb
Two hours north of Montreal
Dm
We talked about losing and how it's confusing
Csus4
Leaving suitcases by the door
Bb
And I wonder who it is you wait for
Dm
The death or the living, the selves you're forgiving
[Chorus 2]
Csus4
Teach me the melodies
Bb
Of the songs you used to sing
Dm Csus4 Bb
When you were twen- ty- three
Dm Csus4 Bb Csus4
Are you still twen- ty- three, eee-ooo
[Bridge]
F Dm
Porcelain portraits
Eb Bb
From your childhood fortress
G Csus4 Dm
Hung up on the walls of your heart
F Dm
You paint and you polish
Eb Bb
A person that you promised
G Csus4 Dm
Your brushstrokes betray a new start
[Chorus 3]
Csus4
Teach me the melodies
Bb
Of the songs you're gonna sing
Dm Csus4 Bb
When you are free
Dm Csus4 Bb Csus4
Are you free
[Outro]
Dm Csus4
Basking in early April sun
Bb
Shedding your skin in more ways than one
