Fm G# D# Fm
Hide in a stork's mouth
C# G# D# Fm
Sleep 'til it's dark out
Cm Gm G#
All dressed up holding your receipts for the numbers that you picked
Cm Gm G#
You in a box full of your mistakes and a leaden crucifix
[Intrumental]

[Verse 1]
Cm D# Fm G#
If hearts were all made like they were balls of yarn
Cm D# Fm G#
Well they've all got the strings that get tugged on your heart
Cm D#
Some are different lengths
Fm G#
Some would be stronger than others
Cm D# Fm G#
And some would be the colors of your mothers and fathers
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Cm D# Fm G#maj7
Do old structures stand the same as any older man?
Cm D#
D# place where something used to live
Fm G#
But in the end just turns cold
Cm D# Fm Dadd9
D#m I a torn up, tattered, worn out piece of fabric
Cm D# Fm G#
Not suitable to stitch up a rip?
Cm D#
Cause I'd like to be tightly braided
Fm D#
Gold and silver bracelets
Cm D# G#
The type you'd like to wear round your wrist
[Chorus]
Cm D# Fm
As we lay
G# Cm D# Fm
We start to pray
G# Cm D# Fm
As we lay
G# Cm D# Fm
We start to pray
[Outro]
Cm D#
And in the places you go
Fm G#
You'll find these people you know
Cm D# Fm G#
All sewing patterns into clothing that you've called your own
Cm D#
And in these smaller designs
Fm G#
There's something larger you might find
Cm D# Fm G#
That people's hands have worked together to make up the parts of you
Cm C#m
