window[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                   [ch]F[/ch]\r\nGoing through your things with the fan blowing[/tab]\r\n[tab]                            [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd the sound of helicopters and the smell of smoke[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]C[/ch]                                         [ch]G[/ch]                                [ch]F[/ch]\r\nFrom the forest fire that was growing, billowing just on the edge of town where we used to swim[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]G[/ch]                                           [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nThey say a natural, cleansing devastation burning the understory, erasing trails[/tab]\r\n[tab]  [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThere is no end[/tab]\r\n[tab]             [ch]C[/ch]\r\nBut when I'm kneeling in the heat[/tab]\r\n[tab]                 [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThrowing out your underwear[/tab]\r\n[tab]                       [ch]F[/ch]\r\nThe devastation is not natural or good[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nYou do belong here[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch]                  [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI reject nature, I disagree[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]                     [ch]C[/ch]\r\nIn the hazy light of forest fire smoke[/tab]\r\n[tab]                       [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI looked across at the refineries[/tab]\r\n[tab]                     [ch]F[/ch]                             [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd thought that the world was actually constantly ending[/tab]\r\n[tab]                              [ch]F[/ch]                                          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd the smell and roar of the asphalt truck that was idling just out the window, tearing up our street[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]                [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI missed you, of course[/tab]\r\n[tab]                            [ch]F[/ch]                                 [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd I remember thinking the last time it rained here you were alive still[/tab]\r\n[tab]              [ch]F[/ch]                            [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd that this same long heat that I was in contained you[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]                           [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd in this same heat I open the window next to you[/tab]\r\n[tab]             [ch]F[/ch]\r\nOn your last morning[/tab]\r\n[tab]             [ch]G[/ch]                             [ch]F[/ch]             [ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo you could breathe and then so you could ghost away[/tab]\r\n[tab]                         [ch]C[/ch]           [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd now so the room will hopefully[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]F[/ch]          [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nStop whispering[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]    [ch]F[/ch]

grief[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch]                        [ch]G[/ch]           [ch]C[/ch]\r\nWalking around, severed, lumbering[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]Em[/ch]     [ch]F[/ch]           [ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut slowly sovereignty reasserts itself[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]Am[/ch]           [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI don't want it though[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]Am[/ch]          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd betrayal whines[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]Am[/ch]         [ch]G[/ch]\r\nWho and how could I[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am/F[/ch]\r\nLive?[/tab]","plain_text":"[Intro]\nF G Am G C
