DmI reBblease Gmyou, DmI reBbceive Gmyou
DmI reBblease Gmyou, DmI reBbceive Gmyou
[Verse 1]
A Dmnew life is birthing,
I Dmpeek out from potter’s eyes,
Bbpeel back the mountains, this Gmsurf is a swift one,
it’s a Dmdelicate thrashing, this undertow daunting,
the Bbtask is at hand, and not a Gmmoment too soon.
When Dmdoubled and breaking, all wide-eyed and crazy,
you Bbwhisper sweet somethings to the Gmone you are saving,
your Dmmirror and likeness, your servant and highness,
the Bbearth in one being, your Gmbody the queen.
[Chorus]
I Dmdo not show this skin for you,
I Dmshow myself to know myself,
I Bbshow for the earth from which I came,
my Gmprayer is for you to do the same.
I Dmdo not show this skin for you,
I Dmshow myself to know myself,
I Bbshow for the earth from which I came,
my Gmprayer is for you to do the same.

[Verse 2]
It will Dmtake all we’ve got,
it will Dmspread it like comfort,
went Bbout all the insides, and Gmdown all the corners,
and when Dmdoubled and breaking, all wide-eyed and crazy,
you Bbwhisper sweet somethings to the Gmone you are saving,
your Dmmirror and likeness, your servant and highness,
the Bbearth in one being, your Gmbody the queen.

Dm Bb Gm Dm Bb Gm

I release you, I receive you

Dm Bb Gm Dm Bb Gm

I release you, I receive you

[Verse 1]

A new life is birthing,

I peek out from potter’s eyes,

Bb Gm

peel back the mountains, this surf is a swift one,

it’s a delicate thrashing, this undertow daunting,

Bb Gm

the task is at hand, and not a moment too soon.

When doubled and breaking, all wide-eyed and crazy,

Bb Gm

you whisper sweet somethings to the one you are saving,

your mirror and likeness, your servant and highness,

Bb Gm

the earth in one being, your body the queen.

[Chorus]

I do not show this skin for you,

I show myself to know myself,

I show for the earth from which I came,

my prayer is for you to do the same.

I do not show this skin for you,

I show myself to know myself,

I show for the earth from which I came,

my prayer is for you to do the same.

Dm Bb Gm Dm Bb Gm

I release you, I receive you

Dm Bb Gm Dm Bb Gm

I release you, I receive you

[Verse 2]

It will take all we’ve got,

it will spread it like comfort,

Bb Gm

went out all the insides, and down all the corners,

and when doubled and breaking, all wide-eyed and crazy,

Bb Gm

you whisper sweet somethings to the one you are saving,

your mirror and likeness, your servant and highness,

Bb Gm

the earth in one being, your body the queen.

your mirror and likeness, your servant and highness,

Bb Gm

the earth in one being, your body the queen.

[Chorus]

I do not show this skin for you,

I show myself to know myself,

I show for the earth from which I came,

my prayer is for you to do the same.

I do not show this skin for you,

I show myself to know myself,

I show for the earth from which I came,

my prayer is for you to do the same.
