Ophelia Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]She [A]who walks alone in[F]
life [G]is she of sound [Am]mind?
[A]I am only as old as I[F]'ve been told
Now [Esus4]I'm playing for time

[Verse 2]
[Am]Darling take me [F]to the lakeside
[G]Wash my body [Am]well
I am [A]holy now the wa[F]ter's hit me
[Dm]Broken from your spell

[Verse 3]
I was on my [Dm]hands [Am]and [G]knees[Am]
Bending at the heart [G]of me
[Dm]

[Verse 4]
[A]We don't know the [F]weight of all
[G]the words we say [Am]now
In [A]a few more years, with [F]open ears
Would you [Esus4]still say[E] them aloud?

[Verse 5]
[Am]They who walk [F]alone in life
[G]They are of sound [Am]mind
We can [A]only get hurt by
[F]things we've heard
And [Dm]lovers are unkind

[Verse 6]
Did you hear [Am]the sun [G]go [Am]down?
Silent as [G]a child [Dm]I found
Hiding in [Am]the midnight [G]of my sou[Dm]l
I am ready [F]now to [G]let [Am]her go

[Verse 7]
[A]She who walks [F]alone in life
[G]is she by [Am]herself
We [A]are only as old as [F]we've been told
And [E]I'm not ready for the shelf

[Verse 8]
[Am]Darling take me [F]to the lakeside
[G]Lay my body [Am]down
I am [A]holy now our [F]skin is
[Dm]touching
Let the sun go out

[Verse 9]
I am on [Am]my hands a[G]nd k[Am]nees
Bending at the [G]heart of [Dm]me
Hiding in the [Am]midnight [G]of my [Dm]soul
Please don't [F]break this
shell that [G]I call home
[Am]
