Capo on 3
Intro: G Bm (2x)
G Bm
Everyone's careful
G Bm
They're plotting their best escapes
G Bm C
For fear of this whole place burning down
Puzzles and pieces
G Bm
We're tangled in cages
G Bm
They rattle and shake their bones
G Bm
They grew from the earth
C
I watched them grow
They came up and grabbed me
Am D Bm
So stand in a world that seems to be built
C
On pillars and numbers
Am D Bm
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
C G Bm G Bm
Before we have learned to love ourselves
G Bm
Measures and objects
G Bm
They fall in our fuel of words
G Bm C
And we are whittled away by zeros, ones
Somebody save us!
G Bm
And nobody asks this
G Bm
Where does our heart live on?
G Bm C
In dreaming of dangers, dream of God
And maybe we've got it...
Am D Bm
So stand in a world that seems to be built
C
On pillars and numbers
Am D Bm
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
C
Before we have learned
Am D Bm
Just to stand, in a world that seems to be built
C
On pillars and numbers
C D Bm
Or dance, with the hopes of falling in love
C
But how can we love...
G Bm
If we can't love ourselves?
G Bm G
Can't love ourselves....
