New Loneliness Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]There is just one apple on t[G]he t[Em]ree
It isn't like I [G]hoped it'd be
[Em]Yesterday when there [G]was still you
I [D]looked and I swear that [A]I saw two
[Em]Maybe a wandering whit[G]e-tailed deer
deer
[Em]Came in the night to make
it [G]even more clear
And [Em]left me just one, [G]a Spartan no less
To [D]re mind me of my new
[A]loneliness
[Em]

[Verse 2]
There is just one oar leaning
[G]against the wall
[Em]What of our plans for paddles
[G]in the Fall?
With the [Em]reeds grown high
in a [G]winding maze
We [D]were to follow [Am]old waterways
[Em]Maybe a hovering drago[G]nfly
Will [Em]rest on a cattail and [G]wonder why
There [Em]is no clamouring a[G]t the shore
Of [D]two in a canoe with [A]each an oar

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 3]
There is [Em]just one pillow [G]on
the bed
[Em]Where a solitary someone [G]lays her head
And [Em]a stack of books meant
to be [G]read aloud
[D]Closed and [A]dusty, awaiting [Em]a crowd
Maybe a spider in a [G]high corner
[Em]Keeps his tiny eye on [G]the still mourner
And [Em]waits for the other
[G]to slip under the cover
And re[D]light the dark candle
[A]lit between [Em]lovers
And re[D]play the melody [A]made
by [Am]two l[Em]overs

[Outro 1]
[Em][D][A][Am][A]
