[Verse]
G Em
If these bare walls could sing
C G
They would sing us a funeral song
Em C
Push their wooden words into your mouth
G Em
They would not wish to be
C G
A burden to your tongue
G Em
Would not wish to carry on
C
Too long
[Chorus]
Am Em
With no sorrow
G G/F# Em
Ask no greater pardon
Am
Than the pattern
Em C
Time is carving in your skin
[Verse]
G Em
If these pale bones could sway
C G
They would march to a funeral song
Em C
And pull their milky way across the yard
G Em
They would not wish to keep
C G
You tethered to their arms
G Em C
They would not wish to carry on too far
[Chorus]
Am Em
With no sorrow
G G/F# Em
Ask no greater pardon
Am
Than the pattern
Em C
Time is carving in your skin
[Break]
G, Em, C (2x)
[Verse]
G Em
Well if I could stretch my ears
C G
Into a grand procession
G Em
And circle ‘round your wisdom
C
Like a song
G Em
I would not wish to be
C G
The fire in your belly
G
I would not wish for
Em C
Holding you too long
[Chorus]
Am Em
With no sorrow
G G/F# Em
Ask no greater pardon
Am
Than the pattern
Em C
Time is carving in your skin
[Outro}
C until the song fades out
