Soft to the Touch Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]I've been out chasing
the storms
that nobody wants me
[G]to follow along.
[D]

[Verse 2]
a couple of drinks and then whoooshh

[Verse 3]
there's [D]no need to push me,

[Verse 4]
I'm already gone
[D]now that I live here alone
there's nobody [G]home
to cushion the [D]blows

[Verse 5]
[D]
and now the dark sets in the most,
I turn to my ghosts to laugh and [Bm]to
[D]joke

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][D]
[G][D][A][D]

[Verse 6]
In this town, [A]leafy and [D]drenched,
[A]I slouch on [D]the bench
[Bm]with my thirst to quench
[D]

[Verse 7]
that I couldn't stop if I tried
no [A]word of a [D]lie,
[Bm]I am ent[D]renched.

[Verse 8]
[D]but there's no need to
voice your concern,
this money I [G]burn at least is well- [D]earned

[Verse 9]
[D]
so I pour til the [A]darkness as[D]cends,
I grease up the lens un[Bm]til this all [D]ends

[Interlude 2]
[A][D][A]
[D][Bm][D][A][D][A][D][A][D][Bm][D]
[G][D][A][D][A]

[Verse 10]
[D]the
edges, then soft to the touch,
are easy to clutch
and [G]that is enough.
[D]

[Verse 11]
today, though, the ripcord has slipped
from my feeble grip
[Bm]and it got too m[D]uch

[Verse 12]
and I [D]cringed all the way to [A]the [D]bank
and [A]there my [G]heart sank,

[Verse 13]
my [G]balance was [D]blank[A]
[D]

[Interlude 3]
[A][D][G][D][A][D]
[A][D]
[A]so I went

[Verse 14]
[D]back out int[A]o the wet[D]
still [A]full of the [D]blues
and [Bm]into the [D]red[A][D]

[Verse 15]
I [D]tilt back my [A]head on my [D]neck,
[A]full [G]of [D]the[G] bl[D]ues[G][D]
[A][D][G][D][G]
[D][A][D][A][D][A][D][G][D][A][D]
[A][D][A][D][G][D]
