Cartwheel chords and lyrics - LUCY DACUS

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Dm][Dm][C][C]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]Here and there and gone again
Firefly juice on your skin
You're [C]glowing like an atom bomb
This natural thing that you've undone
[Dm]Outgrew older sister's clothes again
Won't admit you're growing tall and thin
You [C]like your body pulling at the seams

[Verse 2]
You're not prepared for what the future brings
[Dm]Curse words and empty cups
Cracked blacktop curling up
[C]Heatwave by midday
[G]Heat lightning on a summer night
And [Dm]I remember when you used to call
Holed up in the closet in the hall
[C]Scared you wouldn't live to 45

[Chorus 1]
The same age as your father when he died
[G]You'd say, "We need to talk
[F]Sneak out, meet me on your block"
[Am]I'd sit by you, silent on the curb
[C]What to say when there is not a word?
[Dm]Spell broke at daybreak
Light another candle on the cake
[C]Cartwheel and a broken wrist

[Interlude 1]
Skin scarred and sun-kissed
[Dm][Dm][C][C]
[Dm][Dm][C][C]
[Dm][Dm][C][C]

[Verse 3]
[Dm]When you told me 'bout your first time
A soccer player at the senior high
I [C]felt my body crumple to the floor
Betrayal like I'd never felt before
[Dm]I thought back to many years ago
A late night promise on the telephone
We'd [C]build a house of twigs and vines

[Outro 1]
Grow old together just to pass the time
[G]Now there's only past and present day
I [F]can't believe a word you say
The [Am]future isn't worth its weight in gold
The [C]future is a be[E]nevolent black [G]hole
