Sharpest Blade chords and lyrics - OVER THE RHINE

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]There was a time
I could sleep [D]anywhere
My feet on [G]a chair,
My heart [Am]in the woods;

[Verse 2]
But love was [F]aloof,
Just a beggar [D]for tips
A mime [G]on whose lips
No promises [Am]stood

[Verse 3]
But you can cut [A]me quick
In the light [D]of the shade,
With the edge [G]of the green
Of the yard's [C]sharpest [E]blade;
When nothing I [A]knew
Was all [D]that it seemed

[Verse 4]
[Am]I still dr[Eaug]eamed
Of a [C]love to out[D]live us
[Am]I still pr[E]ayed
That this [C]night would out[D]last us
And re[F]deem some small [E]thing
Far bey[Am]ond m[Asus4]e[D]
[Asus4][Am][Asus4]

[Verse 5]
[A]Blos[Am]soms begin
Like the tip [D]of a spear,
Or the curve of a [G]tear
From a soldier [Am]who weeps;
Seducing the [F]guard
Of lost years [D]falling by
As flowers to [G]lie
On the dead feign[Am]ing sleep

[Verse 6]
But you cut [A]me quick
In the light [D]of the shade,
On the edge [G]of the green
Of the yard's [C]dark [E]parade;
When nothing [A]we knew
Was all [D]that it seemed
[Am]I still dr[E]eamed
Of a love [C]to out[D]live us
[Am]I still pr[E]ayed
That this night [C]would for[D]give us
And re[F]deem some small [E]thing
Far [Asus4]beyond me

[Interlude 1]
[Asus4][A][Am]
[D][G][Am]
[F][D][G][Am]

[Verse 7]
But you cut [A]me quick
In the light [D]of the shade,
On the edge [G]of the green
Of the yard's [C]sharpest [E]blade;
When nothing we [A]knew
Was all [D]that it seemed
[Am]I still dr[Eaug]eamed
Of [E]a love [C]to out[D]live us
[Am]I still pr[E]ayed
That this [Am]night will con[D]vince us
And re[Am]deem [F]some small thi[E]ng[Em][E]
Far [Asus4]beyond me[Am]
