laurel wreath Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][C][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Is it
the withering [C]of tired [G]leaves
[D]All so neatly [Em]woven around
that [C]laurel [G]wreath?[D]
[Em]Or the collapsing of a histo[C]ry
[G]Of vic[D]tories getting lap[Em]ped now
By all my tower[C]ing defeat[G]s[D]
[Em]To be a champion in yo[C]ur eyes[G]
[D]Someone that [Em]you might
be proud [C]to stand beside
[G]But[D] I [Em]bribed the judge
and [C]poisoned [G]the field
[D]Medals and [Em]trophies are only
all that [C]I could steal
[G]

[Verse 2]
But [D]you found me in [C]the morning,
December in my eyes
Falling apart, [D]bloodshot,
[Bm]outside Craigmad[C]die Hospital
As you fly by on the [D]93, what are the odds?
I [Bm]don't know, im[C]possible
Got your call, I needed it more
[D]than I could let on to [Bm]you
I could let on to any[C]one
Could hear it in the corners
of all of my word[D]s
In the silence you [Em]heard all
that's [D]unspoken[G]

[Verse 3]
You don't have to be [C]lonely [G]alo[D]ne
I could be [Bm]there in a heartbeat
[Em]Lone[C]ly alone[G][D][G]
You don't have to be
[C]lonely [G]alo[D]ne
I could be [Bm]there in a heartbeat
[Em]Lone[C]ly alone[G][D]

[Interlude 1]
[Em][C][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[Em]As all my statues start crum[C]bling
[G]I d[D]on't really know[Em] what it is
that I'm [C]offering[G][D][Em]
All I've got here is [C]raining [G]leaves
All [D]once so neatly [Em]woven
round that [C]laurel wreath
[G]

[Verse 5]
But you [D]found me in [C]the morning,
December in my eyes
Falling [D]apart, bloodshot,
[Bm]outside Craigmad[C]die Hospital
As you fly by on the [D]93, what are the odds?
I [Bm]don't know, [C]impossible
Got your call, I needed it more
[D]than I could let on to [Bm]you
I could let on to any[C]one
Could hear it in the corners
of all of my word[D]s
In the silence you [Em]heard all
that's [D]unspoken[G]

[Verse 6]
You don't have to be [C]lonely [G]alo[D]ne
I could be [Bm]there in a heartbeat
[Em]Lone[C]ly alone[G][D][G]
You don't have to be [C]lonely [G]alo[D]ne
I could be [Bm]there in a heartbeat
[Em]Lone[C]ly alone[G],[D]

[Verse 7]
You don't have to be [C]lonely [G]alo[D]ne
I could be [Bm]there in a heartbeat
[Em]Lone[C]ly alone[G][D][G]
You don't have to be [C]lonely [G]alo[D]ne
I could be [Bm]there in a heartbeat
[Em]Lone[C]ly alone[G],[D]
