Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][Bm][F][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Em]I'm
jealous of your [Bm]neck
That [F]narrow porcelain [Am]plinth of [Em]flesh
It gets to hold [Bm]your head
[F]An d I'd rather per
[Am]form the task instead
[E]I'll use my han[Em]ds

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][G][F][Am]

[Verse 2]
[Em]You told me of your [Bm]heart
A [F]cold tile cavern [Am]bathed in dark
And earthy [Em]roots
hanging from within
[Bm]To shed [F]some light
the [Am]fire must get in
[E]

[Verse 3]
A searing pulse
I'm a [C]fever [D]in [Em]your chest
The [C]burning [D]sun [Em]I'm west

[Verse 4]
[Em]I, I am to[Bm]o naïve (You, you are
too naïve)
Your [F]lunar strands were
[Am]lit in red and g[Em]reen
A captivating [Bm]scene
A [F]portion of my[Am]self was lost to me
[E](A portion of yourself was lost to–)
But I'm not dead
(But you're not dead)
Just a [C]harbour [D]no one's [Em]in
[C]An empty [D]salt filled skin

[Outro 1]
[Em]
