Honey and Milk Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Keep me caged with the[Am] animals,
tasting my sor[C]row and teaching me lesson[G]s
You found me asleep with [Am]the roses all over my [C]body,
like a confes[G]sion
Cigarette burns on my [Am]collar,
I don't think [C]I like this life that we're living
[G]Surviving on honey and mil[Am]k,
you don't give me much [C]more to make sure that I'm breath[G]ing

[Verse 2]
I [F]think God's staying at the [C]Di ane Motel
and he's smoking [G]out on [Am]the porch
And you're [F]crying in the park[C]ing lot again,
just praying that [G]I will come h[Am]ome
But I've been [F]lost for so many [C]days on the interstate,
I don't know [G]morning [Am]from dark
The [F]kindness of strangers [C]and the strangeness of everyone
I know has just [G]fucked with my heart
[Am][G]

[Verse 3]
[G]You laugh like an angel with [Am]comatose love in your eye[C]s,
like a sleeping [G]city
You put me to rest in your [Am]gravestone chest,
tell me [C]I've never looked [G]so pretty
The funeral party had drink[Am]s and nobody as[C]ked
why you smashed up [G]the table
Your promises fold and [Am]your voice is so loud
but [C]I'm living in the light of your halo

[Verse 4]
[G]I thi[F]nk God's passed out in the bat[C]htub again,
cause nobody [G]answered the [Am]door
And the [F]love that you made me
[C]fight for was never [G]love at [Am]all
The [F]red light shines [C]through the window and I've
got a black eye for every [G]bed that you've [Am]made
The [F]honey and milk on my fin[C]gertips was
never enough [G]to make you [Am]stay[C]

[Outro 1]
[G][C]
