verse 1: 

C 
How was the cold 
                  G 
Along the path I determined to hold 
                           Am 
Although it coiled round a perilous wing 
                         G 
Blinded with hot gas and carving off steam 

There was still smoke 

C 
Burnt in the grass 
                     G 
Reclaim a portion of desolate south 
                         Am 
Add in the stirrings and long lost fatigue 
                        G 
Barrels that hide us in hair fallen heed 

Then became sound 



F 
And I wasn't afforded a love 
              G 
Covered up in hard earned clay 
F 
I wasn't accorded a stop 
             G 
Always in it so much more 
F 
I wasn't afforded a love 
              Am          G 
Covered up in hard earned clay 
                         C            G          Am          G 
And time wasn't the only cavernous  

verse 2: 

I hope my contour charts show up via river 
Out to the only ocean 
There's something peaceful that goes out via river 
Out to the ocean 
I was peaceful standing, I was open 

Chorus:
