Boyhood - Ed Tullett ukulele chords
C G
The water washed us regal,
F
the seven hands regain.
Am C
The little hell with haste would keel,
F G
and the hate in us retreat.
C G
Your arms were screened in halos,
F
your stuttered light reborn;
Am C
your open shell would crack and cave
F G
until his name was sworn.
F G
Spilled on open canvas,
F G
your spine was all in bloom,
Am F
and it had been gently handled,
( G ) C
then broken to make room
C G
for more heart and bigger lungs,
F
the space in you was filled;
Am C
the white ceiling from which you'd hung,
F G
the shadows you had spilled.
C G
In driven light you stared through me,
F
in dark rooms we would touch;
Am C
my nerves would grow and heart would shrink,
F G
and they would stiffen up.
F G
Statuesque with broken backs,
F G
we crawled in open air,
Am F
and everything that we had lacked
( G ) C
revealed and repaired.
F G
Pale skin in blackened dress,
F G
you danced like darkness would;
Am F
if only I was fearless,
G C
I was braver in boyhood.
The water washed us regal,
F
the seven hands regain.
Am C
The little hell with haste would keel,
F G
and the hate in us retreat.
