[Verse 1]
A
White pine, the moon is so high
D E D E Gbm
You see where you're going with your eyes closed
A
Wild-eyed, growl and smoke
D E Gbm Abm
Return every question in the same tone
A D
There's a state line, out in those pines, buried in frozen ground, we've chosen our sides,
Now we can't turn it around
[Chorus]
A Bm Dbm A
E D
Chain Emily to the stake
A Bm Dbm A E Bm Dbm A
Her family's worried, she's terribly late
E D
G haze rolling across the lake
Gbm Abm A D
If we go, who's to know, dead by morning if we stay
D E E E E D E E E
[Verse 2]
A
G burnt tongue, the paper unfolds
D E D E Gbm
slipping it through another keyhole
A
Slim hope of fireproof rope
D E Gbm Abm
Kerosene off of your sweet nose
A D
It's a steak knife into my thigh, watching you flicker in real time, call your own kind
G A
now we can't turn it around
[Chorus]
E D
Fates, give a warm soul a break
Gbm Abm A Bm Dbm A
Just give me a life where you're nothing but mine, and that's how it will stay
E D
But hey, I've never been so afraid
Gbm Abm A D
With this cold in my bones, and a child engulfed in flame
D E E E E D x3
