i was lost in the lakes

Gm F
and the mountains said i could find you here
C7 D#
they whisper the snow and the leaves in my ear
Gm F
i traced my finger along your trails
C7
your body was the map
D# F
i was lost in there

A# F
floating over your rocky spine
C7 D# F
the glaciers made you and now you’re mine
A# F
floating over your rocky spine
C7 D# F
the glaciers made you and now you’re mine

interlude : Gm F C7 D# x2

Gm F
i was moving across your frozen veneer
C7 D#
the sky was dark , but you were clear
Gm F
could you feel my footsteps?
C7
and would you shatter , would you shatter?
D#
would you?

interlude : Gm F C7 D# x2

( strum once each for the first two lines , then go back to normal )

Gm F
your soft fingers between my claws
C7 D#
like purity against resolve
Gm F
i could tell then there that we were formed from the clay
C7 D# F
and came from the rocks for earth to display

A# F
they told me to be careful up there
C7 D# F
where the wind blows a venomous rage through your hair
A# F
they told me to be careful up there
C7 D# F
where the wind rages through your hair

ending : Gm F C7 D# x2
