Key: G
Introduction:
Bm
In the spring we made a boat
Out of feathers, out of bones
G D
We set fire to our homes,
G D
Walking barefoot in the snow
Bm
Distant rhythm of the drum
As we drifted towards the storm
G D
Baby lion lost his teeth,
G D
Now they're swimming in the sea
Bm
Troubled spirits on my chest
Where they laid to rest
G D
The birds all left my tall friend,
G D
As your body hit the sand
Bm
Million stars up in the sky
Formed a tigers eye
G D
That looked down on my face,
G D
Out of time and out of place
Em
So hold on,
G Em
Hold on to what we are,
G Bm
Hold on to your heart
Bm G D G D
La la la...
Bm G D G D Bm
La la la...
Bm
Awaken by the sound
of a screaming owl
G D
Chasing leafs in the wind,
G D
Going where we've never been
Bm
Said goodbye to you my friend,
As the fire spread
G D
All that's left are your bones
G D
That will soon sink like stones
Em
So hold on,
G Em
Hold on to what we are,
G Bm
Hold on to your heart
Bm G D G D
La la la...
Bm G D G D
La la la...
Em
So hold on,
G Bm
Hold on to your heart
