Scent dripping down from our feet,
C
Right beneath the piers where we were first to meet.
D
And I caught you once, but you let me down twice.
C
I don't know how.
G
There was a place we would all go to sing.
D
We'd gather 'round the old town church
D
To hear those bells ring.
C
I'll never forget those days --
G
When I was worthy of your love.
C G
And I promise I won't make a sound
C G
'Cause I figure you no longer want me around.
G D
And I know that the days will pass
Em7 D C
And soon, we'll be rid of these things.

So let soft words be spoken.

Join in these winter hymns.

G C G
Crows flying out with old wings.
C
Bitter breath with lungs that barely had the strength to sing.

And I fought you once, but you let me win twice,

I don't know why.

I'll never forget your hands,
G C G
'Cause they were always pushing me.

And I promise I won't make a sound

'Cause I figure you no longer want me around.

Just don't go.

And though this darkness will come,
G
And my heart is in stormy weather,
C
And the pain is all I have for now,
D
And I'm homebound

And I promise I won't make a sound
C G
'Cause I figure you no longer want me around.
