Selection chords: Ethan Cooper

Intro: Em Bm C G D

Verse:
      Em                                          Bm
The ground reaches out to catch me softly in her baseball mitt
                  C
Iʼm tired of the dirt and grit
                  G   D
I want something soft
       Em                                            Bm
Iʼm a fish in a bucket, dashinʼ, he tried to take me out

Hooks in my mouth
               C
Listen to me when I say, "Ouch"
                  G   D
I want something soft

Pre-chorus:
                    Em
So I give into the fall, fall, fall (Itʼs cold out here)
                  Bm
I need something soft
                     C
Down feathers over rocks
    C                                           G        D
I died and I went with both of my hands in the mud, the mud
                Em
It felt like a God, how she held me
                 Bm
I slept on her shoulder, I gave her my all (Sheʼs not around anymore)
                 C
I bath?d in her waterfalls
                  G    D
And continued to fall,...fall (A winter in the exosphere)

Chorus:
 Em
Burninʼ like a dying star
                         Bm
Invasive weeds rooted in my heart
                          C
Settinʼ a crooked dejectory

The journey here was hard
              G
I was almost pulled apart
                   D
Tryina leave this orbit, took whatʼs left of me

Verse:
     Em                                                 Bm
The forest reaches out to guide me, blue fire paths of Will-Oʼ-Whisps
                       C                            G              D
Illuminate the darknessʼs old tricks, Iʼm nobodyʼs captive (Mm-mm-mm)
   Em                                                     Bm
I asked him not to kill me politely, he drained my magic core, bottled up at the source
                  C
I washed up on a sea glass shores
              G      D
Iʼm nobodyʼs captain

Pre-chorus:
               Em
It felt like a God, how she held me
                 Bm
I slept on her shoulder, I gave her my all (Sheʼs not around anymore)
                 C
I bathed in her waterfalls
                  G    D
And continued to fall,...fall (A winter in the exosphere)

Chorus:
 Em
Burninʼ like a dying star
                         Bm
Invasive weeds rooted in my heart
                          C
Settinʼ a crooked dejectory

The journey here was hard
              G
I was almost pulled apart
                   D
Tryina leave this orbit, took whatʼs left of me
 Em
Burninʼ like a dying star
                         Bm
Invasive weeds rooted in my heart
                          C
Settinʼ a crooked dejectory

The journey here was hard
              G
I was almost pulled apart
                   D
Tryina leave this orbit, took whatʼs left of me

Outro:
     Em                                            Bm
The ground reaches out to catch me, softly in her baseball mitt
                   C
Iʼm tired of the dirt and grit, I want something soft
