Iron And Wine - Promising Light

promising light

tuned half step down – album version

C G
time and all you gave
F C G
i was the jerk who preferred the sea
C G
to tussling in the waves
F C G
tugging your skirt singing please , please , please

Am G
now i see love
F C G
tracked on the floor where you walked outside
Am G
now i seek love
F C G
looking for you in this other girl’s eyes

C G
time and all you took
F C G
only my freedom to fxxk the whole world
C G
promising not to look
F C G
promising light on the sidewalk girls

Am G
now i see love
F C G
there in your car where i said those things
Am G
now i see love
F C G
tugging your skirt singing please , please , please

C G
time and all you gave
F C G
there on your cross that i never saw
C G
well beyond the waves
F C G
dunking my head when i heard you call

Am G
now i see love
F C G
there in the scab where you pinched my leg
Am G
now i see love
F C G
there on your side of the empty bed
