The Hand

Afinação: E A D G B ETecla: CmCapotraste: 3rd traste [Verse 1] Am G Every time a guy writes a song Fmaj7 He's a cowboy, a sailor G Playing with the world in his palm Am Like the first pioneer G Every time he opens his mouth Fmaj7 It's a loud movie trailer G Clipping every image and sound Am He thinks proves he was here [Chorus] G A hand, a spike, a physical fight Fmaj7 A flash of light and curtain G A toll, a tithe, a passage of time Am A height, a dive, a burden G A girl, a night, a typical type Fmaj7 A Siren in the water G A scroll, a nod, a message from God Am A son, a Holy Father [Verse 2] Am G Every time a guy writes a song Fmaj7 He's a sailor, a cowboy G Holding out the world in his palm Am Like he made it himself G Every time I open my mouth Fmaj7 I think "wow, what a loud noise!" Still on the soapbox G Am Just hoping I seem underwhelmed [Chorus] G The hand, the pen, the writing again Fmaj7 The wind around the willow G The felt, the ice, the passage of time Am The melting down the window G The now, the then, the thinking of when Fmaj7 The bottle in the ocean G The strike, the pause, the message from God Am Forbid she shows emotion [Bridge] Am This isn't rage, it's worth a mention G This is a fake internal tension Fmaj7 Sometimes I spread out one opinion G And stand on its back to gauge attention Am This isn't rage, it's too specific G I like to hate symbolic limits Fmaj7 This is no statement, I'm complicit G This is a dream, God put me in it [Chorus] Am G A hand, the spike, a physical fight Fmaj7 The wind around the willow G The toll, a tithe, a passage of time Am The melting down the window G The now, the then, the thinking of when Fmaj7 The Siren in the water G The strike, the pause, the message from God Am Does that make me his daughter? [Outro] G A hand, a shove, a valley, a jump Fmaj7 A score under the wire G Just sweep me up, just sweep me up Am And take me somewhere higher G Just sweep me up, just sweep me up Fmaj7 And take me somewhere higher G Just sweep me up, just sweep me up Am And take me somewhere higher
