[Intro]
Esus4 Amadd9 Asus2
[Verse 1]
A crow that's being Amadd9dreamed
By a child who's being carried through the forest
Sleeping, wondering in her twilight half-awareness
Where her mother went
I Esus4know that you died
But in this child's crow dream you survive
[Verse 2]
Beneath layers of Amadd9magical symbolic wild animals
Inhabiting the edges of our fogged-over consciousnesses
Grasping for soAsus2mething to hold
Something old
Like a name cut into a stone
Or a bird that will make Em/Geye contact
[Verse 3]
That's where you Esus4live now
Or at least that's where I hold you
And we're still Amadd9here without you
Sleeping and the sun's coming up
In the ruins of our hoAsus2usehold, we wake up again
Coming back into this
Every day that comes, the Em/Gecho of you living here gets quieter
Obscured by the loud wind of us now
Wailing and Esus4moaning for you
But also living, talking about school
Making food, just sAmadd9urviving and still containing love
Waking up again, the baby that you knew is now a kid
And when she Asus2looks at me with your eyes the shape of almonds
I am stirred inside and reemerge
I go downstairs and Em/Gturn on CBC and make some coffee
And boil two eggs and make two pieces of bread into toast
And open the window and give the Esus4child some clothes
And get us sitting at the table
Where your chair still sits across from me, watching
I Amadd9stand up to put on music
Our daughter sees and asks for mama's record
And she's staring at the sAsus2peaker with this look of recognition
Putting it together that it's you singing
I'm sobbing and eating Em/Geggs again
You're a quiet echo on loud wind
But when I'm trying to, I see you eEsus4verywhere
In plants and birds and in our daughter
In the sun going down and coming up and in whatever
And the Amadd9myths that used to get told around the fire
Where a seal's head pokes up through from underwater
Crossing a tAsus2hreshold between two worlds, yours and mine
We were skeletally intertwined once
But now I notice rEm/Gavens instead
I don't see you anywhere
[Bridge]
Pattern changes here. No longer plucking the root note, instead a slow strum. Listen to song, but on each
chord there is a string for the second pluck. On the album there are a lot of pulloffs which you can mess
around with.
