Thousands of Bees Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]In [Em]a jar of alchemy
The sands of mind washed in from the
[D]sea on a sinking [B]boat
[Em]Navigating the tangled thread
In a snag at the edge of the
[D]bed a well-worn plot
[B]plot
[C]Written in an aching [B]need
The [D]book with the shining
[C]seed could not [Em]float

[Verse 2]
[G]I awoke [D]in the early mor[Em]ning
[G]I thought [D]to tell you[Em] something
But I forget [C]what it was now anyway
It's [Em]good of you to stay

[Verse 3]
I [Em]saw myself in shattered mirrors
Each an echo of the other's features,
[D]but never the sam[B]e
The [Em]pieces hung on to the wall
Held a while before they
[D]fall from the [B]game
But [C]if they could [B]resolve
To [D]flow as they [C]dissolve my name
[Em]

[Verse 4]
[D]I awoke in the early [Em]morning
[G]I thought [D]to tell you[Em] something
But I forget [C]what it was now anyway
It's [Em]good of you to stay

[Verse 5]
I [Em]had a dream, beautiful
In a garden [D]there grew shining [B]trees
[Em]Fruit and vines in the night
The plants shone a strange
[D]light from their [B]leaves
I drew [C]closer to the colored
[B]shapes
Illuminat[D]ing the folds of my
[C]cape and my [Em]sleeves
And [D]of a sudden heard [C]a sound
[B]Buzzing soft all [C]around without a [Em]breeze
[D]Flying in [C]the garden where
[B]Flowers touched my hands
and [C]hair thousands of [Em]bees

[Verse 6]
[Em]I aw[D]oke in the early mor[Em]ning
[G]I thought [D]to tell you[Em] something
But I forget [C]what it was now anyway
It's [Em]good of you to stay

[Outro 1]
[Em]
