Crystals
C
1. Lost in skies of powdered gold,
F
caught in clouds of silver
ropes,
C
showered by the empty hopes,
F
as I tumble down, falling fast
to the ground.
Am - G F
I know I'll wither, so peel away the bark,
Am
because nothing grows when it
is dark.
G F
In spite of all my fears I can
see it all so clear,
F
I see it all so clear.
- C Am
Oo.....h, cover your crystal eyes,
G F C
and feel the tones that tremble down your spine.
- C Am
Oo....h, cover your crystal eyes,
G F C
and let your colors bleed, and blend with mine.
C
2. Making waves in pitch black sand,
F
feel the salt dance on my
hands,
C
raw and charcoal colored
thighs,
F
feel so cold and my skin feels
so paper-thin.
Am - G F
I know I'll wither, so peel away the bark,
Am
because nothing grows when it
is dark.
G F
In spite of all my fears I can
see it all so clear,
F
I see it all so clear.
- C Am
Oo.....h, cover your crystal eyes,
G F C
and feel the tones that tremble down your spine.
- C Am
Oo....h, cover your crystal eyes,
G F C
and let your colors bleed, and blend with mine.
Am Em F
+ But I'm ok in see-through skin
I forgive what is within,
Am
Em
F
because I'm in this house I'm
in this home all my time.
+ CHORUS
