A B C#m
still alive who you love

Wash Chords

C
Climb
Is all we know
Am
When thaw
F
Is not below us

No can't grow up

In that iron ground

Bet
Is hardly shown

Scraped

Across the foam

Over havens fora full and swollen morass young habitat!

All been living alone where the ice snap and the hold clast are known

Home
Were savage high

Come

We finally cry

Oh and we don it

Because it's right

Claire I was too sore for sight

I were sewing up through the latchet greens

Same white pillar tone as with the bone street sand is thrown where she stashed us at

Michicant Chords

Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
I was unafraid, I was a boy, I was a tender age
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Melic in the naked, knew a lake and drew the lofts for page
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Hurdle all the waitings up, know it wasn't wedded love
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
4 long minutes end and it was over it'd all be back
D
And the frost took up the eyes

Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Pressed against the pane could see the veins and there was poison out
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Resting in a raze the inner claims I hadn't breadth to shake
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Searching for an inner clout, may not take another bout
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Honey in the hale could fill the pales of loving less with vain
D
Hon, it wasn't yet the spring

Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Aiming and it sunk and we were drunk and we had fleshed it out
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Nose up in the globes, you never know if you are passing out
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
No it wasn't maiden-up, the falling or the faded luck
Cadd9 G Em D Cadd9 G Cadd9
Hung up in the ivory, both were climbing for a finer cause
D
Love can hardly leave the room
G
With your heart

Holocene Chords

[Capo 6]

[Verse]

G Em D
Someway, baby, it's part of me, apart from me.
Em C
you're laying waste to Halloween
G Em D
you fucked it friend, it's on it's head, it struck the street
Em C
you're in Milwaukee, off your feet

[Chorus]

C Em D
and at once I knew I was not magnificent
C Em D
strayed above the highway aisle
C Em G D
jagged vacance, thick with ice
Em C D G
I could see for miles, miles, miles

[Same as Above Verse Chords]

[Verse]
3rd and Lake it burnt away, the hallway
was where we learned to celebrate
automatic bought the years you’d talk for me
that night you played me ʻLip Paradeʼ
not the needle, nor the thread, the lost decree
saying nothing, that’s enough for me

[Same as Above Chorus Chords]

[Chorus]
...and at once I knew I was not magnificent
hulled far from the highway aisle
jagged, vacance, thick with ice
I could see for miles, miles, miles

[Verse]
Christmas night, it clutched the light, the hallow bright
above my brother, I and tangled spines
we smoked the screen to make it what it was to be
now to know it in my memory:

[Chorus]
...and at once I knew I was not magnificent
high above the highway aisle
jagged vacance, thick with ice
I could see for miles, miles, miles
