Ring on the Sill Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[F]She[C] pl[G]ace[F]d[C][G]
her [F]ring on [C]the sill,
[G]Dishes piled high
She's on the [F]front porch step
[C]And the[G] air smells like snow
She's [C]thinking of the siege
to come
And how she'll [Am]miss those weekends
In the park with the sun on her face
[Dm]And her book by her [F]side and that
Lingering [C]taste that he left [G]on her tongue

[Verse 2]
He lifts his [F]glass from the table
[C]It leaves a rin[G]g where it stood
He sees the [F]light from the win[C]dow
[G]Caress her like he knows he should
He's re[C]membering the first time
he kissed her
And how he'd [Am]wake
And immediately he'd miss her,
Like [Dm]a spell, with each breath,
He'd [F]taste her breath like a [C]haunting,
Ir[G]ritating as [C]hell[E]
Do you re[G]member when you'd

[Verse 3]
[F]pray
To never [C]see the day
When [F]someone would make
[C]you feel this way
'Cause you [Dm]knew
They would cut right [F]through you
And [C]once inside,
[G]you were afraid they'd find
[Dm]Nothing to hold [C]on to[F][C]
[G][F][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]
He puts her [F]ring on her fin[C]ger,
She [G]brushes back his hair
He takes a [F]sip from his glass,
[C]She in [G]hales the cold fall air
And they're [C]thinking of the
long road ahead
And the [Am]strength that they will need
Just to reach the end
And [Dm]there in the silence
they [F]search for
The balance between this
[C]fear that they feel
And [G]a love that has graced their lives
