Skin And Bones

F         G                 Am        G
I used to dream about the heroes of stories
F                  G       C/E
As life became an endless night
F         G              Am           G
When hope was gone you resurrected my spirit
F                G            C/E
Brought me from darkness into light


[Pre-Chorus]
Dm              F
I can sense a storm is coming
Am        G      F
Anchoring you to me


[Chorus]
Am     F         C      G
Far beneath my skin and bones
  Am     F   C      G
I harbor my divided soul
F                     Am
My greatest source of strength
Am          C      G
Might be my downfall
    Am       F      C         G
But love was not a choice for me
   Am       F         C      G
I held my breath and took a leap
F               Am
And when I lose myself
            C         G
You help me stand so tall


[Verse 2]
F         G                      Am        G
I listen closely and hear sweet strains of music
F       F       G    C/E
I’m captured in a reverie
F                  G                   Am       G
Through all these years you’ve been my quiet salvation
F                G      C/E
Reflecting who I want to be


[Pre-Chorus]
Dm         F       F
Please for my sake no more talk of
Am       G              F
Blessings and curses tonight


[Chorus]
Am     F         C      G
Far beneath my skin and bones
  Am     F   C      G
I harbor my divided soul
F     F               Am
My greatest source of strength
Am          C      G
Might be my downfall
    Am       F      C         G
But love was not a choice for me
   Am       F         C      G
I held my breath and took a leap
F               Am
And when I lose myself
            C         G
You help me stand so tall


[Bridge]
F           G               Am         G
Standing in silence we look out at the water
F                   G            C/E
Amazed how much the world has changed
F       G          Am        G
I see behind your eyes such wisdom and sorrow
   F                      G          C/E
You’re wondering if we’re still the same


[Pre-Chorus]
Dm           F
I felt more love than I could
Am    G          F
Give in just one lifetime


[Chorus]
Am     F         C      G
Far beneath my skin and bones
  Am     F   C      G
I safekeep our united souls
F                     Am
My greatest source of strength
Am          C      G
Was not my downfall
    Am       F      C         G
But love was not a choice for me
   Am       F         C      G
I held your hand and took a leap
F            Am
I'll never lose myself
            C         G
You help me stand so tall
