[Intro]
G Am x4
[Verse 1]
G Am
I wake up feeling nothing
G Am
camouflage the wavering sky
G Am G
I sit at my piano wander
Am G
the wild whereby And the
Am
lilacs drink the water
G Am
and the lilacs die
G Am
And the lilacs drink
G Am
the water marking the slow
G Am G C G C G C
slow slow passing of time
[Verse 2]
G Am G
I get so angry baby at
Am
something you might say
G Am
I dream about an awful
G Am
stranger work my way through
G Am
the day I run it like a silent
G Am
movie I run it like a violent
G Am
song I run it like a voice
G
compelling so right
Am
it can't be wrong
[Chorus 1]
Em Am
If I'm a broken record
C G
write it in the dust babe
Em Am
I'll fill myself back up
C G Em
like I used to do And if
Am
my bones are made of
C G Em
delicate sugar I won't
Am
end up anywhere
C G Em Am C G Em Am C G
good without you
Am G Am G Am G Am G Am
I need your love too
[Verse 3]
G Am
When I live a sparse existence
G Am
I'll drop down in the fold
G Am
Lean in to an urgent falter
G Am G
spin silence into gold I run
Am
it like the crop of kismet
G Am
I run it like a dilettante
G Am
I run it like I'm happy baby
G Am
like I got everything I want
[Chorus 2]
Em Am
If I'm a broken record
C G
write it in the dust babe
Em Am
I'll fill myself back up
C G Em
like I used to do And if
Am
my bones are made of
C G Em
delicate sugar I won't
Am
end up anywhere
C G
good without you
Em
I won't end
Am
up anywhere
C G Em Am C G Em Am C G
good without you
Am G C G C G C G C
I need your love too
[Outro]
G Am G Am
And the lilacs drank the water
G Am G Am
And the lilacs drank the water
G Am G Am G Am G
And the lilacs drank the water
