[Verse]
Speak until the Edust
settles in the G#msame specific place
Light refused to Bgo
Drink it from a F#cast and iron plate
instead of cold C#mmilk
was offered unG#mripe
Instead of siBlence, considered craven
Nothing made it Eseem
hidden where the G#mageing soil was pure
Pressed against the Bcheek
Mountains become F#fragrant at the source
how can you stand C#mit
exotic aG#mngles
I read it someBwhere
that they would lie F#still
[Chorus]
I remember how C#mcloth hung
flexing with the G#mforest clung
Half waist and Bhigh raised arm
kicking at the Aslightest form
I remember my Efirst loveC#m  
I remember my G#mfirst love
[Verse]
EUnrelied I was called
missing teeth out of fG#mavour
BNickel beach it was all
gathering by the sunF#down
C#mI woke hard, I woke heavy
for the G#mhalf rain stop, five whole hours in
when BI woke hard
I woke heavy with the F#live apart
[Chorus]
And I remember how C#mcloth hung
flexing with the G#mforest clung
Half waist and Bhigh raised arm
kicking at the Aslightest form
I remember my fEirst loveC#m

C#m

[Verse]

Speak until the dust

G#m

settles in the same specific place

Light refused to go

Drink it from a cast and iron plate

C#m

instead of cold milk

G#m

was offered unripe

Instead of silence, considered craven

Nothing made it seem

G#m

hidden where the ageing soil was pure

Pressed against the cheek

Mountains become fragrant at the source

C#m

how can you stand it

G#m

exotic angles

I read it somewhere

that they would lie still

[Chorus]

C#m

I remember how cloth hung

G#m

flexing with the forest clung

Half waist and high raised arm

kicking at the slightest form

E C#m

I remember my first love

G#m

I remember my first love

[Verse]

Unrelied I was called

G#m

missing teeth out of favour

Nickel beach it was all

gathering by the sundown

C#m

I woke hard, I woke heavy

G#m

for the half rain stop, five whole hours in

when I woke hard

I woke heavy with the live apart

[Chorus]

C#m

And I remember how cloth hung

G#m

flexing with the forest clung

Half waist and high raised arm

kicking at the slightest form

I remember my first love

I remember my first love
