two steps forward chords and lyrics - EMMY THE GREAT

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]In the middle of September
[G]we entertained the thought
[Am]of falling into rabbit holes and nev
[F]er coming out
in the garden [C]of a girl who's mum is friends with Elton John,
so she [G]kept telling us
we just let it pass

[Verse 2]
and slipped a year [C]or so
behind ourselves
[G]the time's already gone,
[Am]when people were just people not
the jobs [F]that they perform
[Fm]our songs were just a thing we did
[C]with melody's and chords
now you're [G]available in all

[Verse 3]
good record stores.
[G]but[Dm]
[D]i knew [G]you best back when love [C]was just [G]a feeling that [Am]ran
out between my legs onto [F]the, back of my [G]dress
onto the clothes [C]that i was wearing
when i was a child i was [G]expected

[Verse 4]
to believe
[Am]in something up above that no
one touches [F]or can see
but now they tell me that unless you're looking out [C]of magazines well then
[G]you don't exist but i knew that you were real [C]be fore i read it
[G]in an interview today before [Am]i used you as
a surface - did a line [F]across your face
in the toi[Fm]let of a girl who's sitting out[C]side dropping names like they [G]were carpet bombs,
she knows everyone

[Verse 5]
[Dm]but, i knew [G]you first back when love [C]was under
[G]neath you with [Am]my fingers in the dirt,
you said [F]"i'll stop if [G]it hurts"
you said [Am]"i'll stop it if it's scary,"
you said "you know [F]that i can
stop this any [G]time,
if you think that it is tear[C]ing"
[G]and i t[Am]hink of you when the
[F]leaves are brown,
i think [C]of leaves that i have felt against
my [G]body on the ground

[Verse 6]
i think [Am]of places where we could [F]go to now until they [C]find us 'til they catch us,
'til [G]they wake us and
we drown until [F]I know where i[G] am
i'm in a [C]garden of [G]remembering [Am]your fingers in my hand,
were like [F]a book made of sand
[G]was like the book that i was reading, was like the book
that i had with me all the time
[C]to tell me i was breathing

[Verse 7]
and its the middle [C]of September.
[G]your image starts to fade in[Am]to the one that they
have printed on [F]the 27th page
don't like to read these things you know
[C]i do it anyway i have [G]no choice

[Verse 8]
have no choice i say
[G]and i go out [C]into the garden [G]the birds begin to sing i [Am]am troubled
by the thought of all the daylight [F]they will bring
i think [C]that i [Fm]will let somebody [C]take me home [G]again before
the evening ends i will forget with them [Dm]that i.
[D]knew you [G]at all
that my love [C]was under[G]neath you mak
[Am]ing puddles on the floor
and that [F]i sleep to t[G]he thought of
[F]two people walking two

[Verse 9]
[G]steps forward [C]always to [Am]the lives
they've chosen [F]clicks and hums [G]and sirens and the [C]sun
of [F]two people walking [G]two steps forward [C]always to the [Am]lives they've chosen,
[F]clicks and hums [G]and sirens and the [C]sun
of [F]two people walking [G]two steps forward [C]always to the [E]lives
we've chosen [F]clicks and hums [G]and silence and the [C]sun
