[ verse 1 ]
Em
for starts
Am Em
what a waste to say the heart could feel apart
Am
or feel complete , baby
Em Am
why would you make out of words a cage for your own bird?
Em
when it sings so sweet
Am
the screaming , heaving , fuckery of the world?
Em Am
why would you offer her name to the same old tired pain?
Em Am
when all things come from nothin’ and , honey , if nothin’s gained?
[ pre – chorus ]
Em
my heart is thrilled by the still of your hand
Em n . C
it’s how i know now that you understand
[ chorus ]
Em Am
there’s no plan , there’s no race to be run
D Em
the harder the rain , honey , the sweeter the sun
Em Am
there’s no plan , there’s no kingdom to come
D Em
i’ll be your man if you got love to get done
Em Am
sit here and watch the sunlight fade
D Em
honey , enjoy , it’s gettin’ late
Em Am
there’s no plan , there’s no hand on the rein
D Em Em
as mac explained , there will be darkness again
[ verse 2 ]
Em Am
let it hurt , let the awful song be heard
Em Am
blue bird , i know you beat , baby
Em Am
but your secret is safe with me ’cause if secrets were like saints
Em Am
keep my body from the fire , higher , guard them from my grave
Em Am
your secret is safe with me , and if secrets were like seeds
Em Am
when i’m laying on the marble , marble of flowers you have made
[ pre – chorus ]
Em
my heart is thrilled by the still of your hand
Em
it’s how i know now that you understand
