Persephone

F
Persephone
Bb
Lord of the dead
      Gm                 Bb
Do we all go down for a season?
   F
The creatures that we seek
    Bb
The images we collect
        Gm                        Bb
But you can't bring them into the spring sun


[Chorus]
F
I don't want to dance anymore
Eb
With dark nostalgia
Gm                                      C
I don't want to hold hands with the dreams
      C            F
Of a dead man, and I
F
I don't want to dance anymore
Eb
With dark nostalgia
Gm                                    C
I don't want to hold hands with the dreams
 C
Of a dead man, I

F Cm Gm Bb F


[Verse 2]
F              Bb
I dig into the folds of my mind
Gm                                  Bb
Scavenging the cracks sometimes for answers
F                  Bb
But hope is not as I have come to find
Gm                Bb
Something that you understand
N.C.
But I trust, and I


[Chorus]
F
I don't want to dance anymore
Eb
With dark nostalgia
Gm                                      C
I don't want to hold hands with the dreams
      C            F
Of a dead man, and I
F
I don't want to dance anymore
Eb
With dark nostalgia
Gm                                    C
I don't want to hold hands with the dreams
 C
Of a dead man, I

F Cm Gm Bb F


[Bridge]
F
When I was young
  Bb
I thought I would become
        Gm                                  Bb
Someone different than who I find myself to be
 F                       Bb
But in my weakness, I've come to believe
     Gm                           Bb
That who I am is greater than the man...
N.C.
Of who I once dreamed


[Chorus]
F
I don't want to dance anymore
Eb
With dark nostalgia
Gm                                      C
I don't want to hold hands with the dreams
      C            F
Of a dead man, and I
F
I don't want to dance anymore
Eb
With dark nostalgia
Gm                                    C
I don't want to hold hands with the dreams
 C
Of a dead man, I
