Had To Put It In The Soil

E                                A
Couldn't let you love me, had to put it in the soil.
E                             A
Buried it and gave you to the night.
C#m                             F#m
Didn't see it growing, then you wrapped me in its leaves

                   B
"Such a beautiful heart!
                    C#m
Such a beautiful soul!
                     B
Lead me to your house
            A
Lead me home!"

F#m                                 A
How long can we go on with just the remnants?
F#m                                  A
Not fit to build a shelter, but I'm trying all the same.

E                                 A
Couldn't let you love me, now I've put that in the soil.
E                               A
Buried it and mourned into the night:
                     B
"Such a beautiful heart!
                        C#m
Such a beautiful soul!
                    B
Lead me to your house!
                  A
Lead me home!"

F#m                                  A
How long can we go on with just the remnants?
F#m                                              A

E                                                      A
Couldn't let you love me, now I've put that in the soil.
E                     A
