Ivy Acordes

[Verse 1]
Bm           A
How's one to know?
G                       Em7              Bm
I'd meet you where the spirit meets the bones
     G           D        A
In a faith forgotten land
Bm           A
In from the snow
G                           Em7          Bm
Your touch brought forth an incandescent glow
G               D    A
Tarnished but so grand
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                  A                G
And the old widow goes to the stone every day
      Em                Bm
But I don't, I just sit here and wait
G                A
Grieving for the living
 
[Chorus]
  D   Bm
Oh, goddamn
   A                 G                    D
My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
Bm               Asus4                  A
Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
  D    Bm
Oh, I can't
A                G                  D
Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
   Bm                   A
My house of stone, your ivy grows
       A            Bm   A G G   Em7 Em7 Asus4 A
And now I'm covered in you
 
[Verse 2]
Bm        A
I wish to know
G                   Em7               Bm
The fatal flaw that makes you long to be
    G          D    A
Magnificently cursed
Bm           A
He's in the room
     G             Em7           Bm
Your opal eyes are all I wish to see
     G            D    A
He wants what's only yours
 
[Chorus]
  D    Bm
Oh, goddamn
   A                 G                    D
My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
Bm               Asus4              A
Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
D     Bm
Oh, I can't
A                G                  D
Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
   Bm                   Asus4
My house of stone, your ivy grows
    A
And now I'm covered
 
[Bridge 1]
Em7           F#m
Clover blooms in the fields
G                        A           Bm
Spring breaks loose, the time is near
              D/C#              D
What would he do if he found us out?
Em7            F#m
Crescent moon, coast is clear
G                        A           Bm
Spring breaks loose, but so does fear
           D/C#              D
He's gonna burn this house to the ground
 
[Verse 3]
Bm           A
How's one to know?
G                    Em7             Bm
I'd live and die for moments that we stole
    G                 D    A
On begged and borrowed time
Bm            A
So tell me to run
G                   Em7               Bm
Or dare to sit and watch what we'll become
    G                D     A
And drink my husband's wine
 
[Chorus]
  D    Bm
Oh, goddamn
   A                 G                    D
My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
Bm               Asus4                  A
Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
  D    Bm
Oh, I can't
A                G                  D
Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
   Bm                   Asus4
My house of stone, your ivy grows
     A          D      Bm   A
And now I'm covered in you
    G           D   Bm  Asus4  A
And I'm covered in you
 
[Bridge 2]
   D
So yeah, it's a fire
       G                   A
It's a goddamn blaze in the dark
            D
And you started it
            G  A
You started it
   Bm
So yeah, it's a war
         G                   A
It's the goddamn fight of my life
            D
And you started it
            G  A
You started it
 
[Chorus]
 Bm   D/C#
Oh, I can't
D                Em7               Bm
Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
    A                   D
My house of stone, your ivy grows
                    D
And now I'm covered
     Bm Asus4 A
In you
D    Bm Asus4 A   D Bm Asus4 A
In you
                D    Bm Asus4 A
