The Hush Sound - Magnolia

capo on 3rd fret .

Dm Am Am G
your heartbeat is pulsing at night in your chest
it’s gold and it’s glowing with all the life you have left
i received your words from hospitals where you felt alone
your words like smoke , they made me sick but they kept me warm

F C G G
run where you’ll be safe
through the garden gates
F C G ( strum once then stop )
to the shelter of magnolias

Dm Am Am G
eyes like sea glass , so weathered and worn
from all they’ve seen of adolescence torn
the lovers who have tainted you , they pulled you into the night
they touched your skin with velvet gloves and made you feel alive

F C G G
run where you’ll be safe
through the garden gates
F C G G
to the shelter of magnolias
F C G G
there’s not much time
the blush in the sky
F C G G
begins to fade

Am F C
you are weathered and worn
E
your petals soft and torn
Am F E E
the fading color
Am F C
you have bent your shoulders
E
to hold the weight of the world
Am F E E
you will surely shatter

solo :
Dm Am Am G
repeat 4 times

F C G G
run where you’ll be safe
through the garden gates
F C G G
to the shelter of magnolias
F C G G
there’s not much time
the blush in the sky
F C G G
begins to fade

outro :
Am F C E
Am F E E
