All chords relative to capo
Intro: C F C G C F G
C F
When you mend the patches of my clothin'
C G
You know every thread goes through my heart
C F
Guessin' that the river's gonna dry up
C G C
Well, I said that's not the reason why we bard
C F
Lookin' 'round the corner where I left you
C G
Wonderin' whatever led me there
C F C G
Knowin' that a quiet, unconscious feeling could be bought to drown a memory
C
anywhere
Dm C
She said, "I don't want your medicine and I don't need the sparrow in my heart"
Dm F G
When I'm covered by the thunder I get rid of all your breath deep in my lungs
C
Splayed in the wind apart
(Repeat Intro)
C F
And when I touch the ceiling on a spring day
C C
Wishin' it could heed up every crow
C F
So that they could lift me by my shoulders
C G C
Take me from this frozen lake and let you know
Dm C
Just that I want to be your medicine I want to feed the sparrow in your heart
Dm F
When I'm covered by the thunder I'll get rid of all the breath deep in our
G
lungs
C
Splayed the wind apart
C F
Hell I'm still standing 'round the corner where I left you
C G
Diggin' up a quite sufficient track
C F C G
Never know when you're behind that angle with a tranquilizer gun in your
C
sweet hand
Dm C
Oh I want to be your medicine I want to feed the sparrow in your heart
Dm F
When we're covered by the thunder we'd become just one and feel the lightning
G
shard
C
Splayed the wind apart
(Repeat Intro)
Great tab, great song, but the C on the 'I want to feed the sparrow' line should be an F and then C is played at 'heart'
