Cicada Days. taby ukulele według Will Wood (Chwyty barytonu)

[Intro]
D
 
 
[Verse]
D
The greener grass grows where the wildfires 
fertilize,
D                                           
With ashes of sparrows, peppered moths, and 
               Em                 G
butterflies. Ghosts of trees and termites
          D
Bloom in the beanstalk.
 
D
And if you get lightheaded when standing too fast, is
 it from
D                                                  
Shaking out the weight of phosphenes and past salt 
  Em                       G
deposits, on warm little rivers,
                     D
That burst from our words
 
 
[Pre-chorus]
     A                G                     D
And god knows crying ain't gonna change a thing.
     A                      G                D    
She said "take care" but I take more than I bring.
Dmaj7 D7
 

 
[Chorus]
               G                                 D
She said, "It just feels inhumane to lose this much.
                 Em                 G             
'Cause when you leave you know you take more than 
       D Dmaj7 D7
your love."
              G                             D
Just one week of cicada days, we're losing touch.
               Em             G                 D
And I know it just feels inhumane to lose this much.
 
Em G
 
 
[Verse]
D
Our nerves were braided under ceiling stars, that 
were all
D
Glow in the dark, hanging over queen-sized
 Em              G                          D     Em 
Purple waves of ancient chemicals. Just whisper.
 G
 
 
D
Did you ever build with those endangered bones? Well 
the
N.C                          D7            Em  G
ground looks soft enough to bury this now. Ohhhh,
           D
Please, oh no.
 
 
[Pre-chorus]
               A              G                D
And then my sponsor said "Do nothing. Nothing works."
             A                 G              D      
And then my doctor said "Don't do that if it hurts."
  Dmaj7 D7
 
 
[Chorus]
               G                                 D
She said, "It just feels inhumane to lose this much.
                 Em                 G             
'Cause when you leave you know you take more than 
       D
your love."
           G                             D
The seasons of cicada days we can’t make up
               Em             G                 D
And I know it just feels inhumane to lose this much, 
woah
 
 
[Bridge]
           G                   G                 D
Let all my red flags fade to white, yeah, I give up.
              G               G                D
Don't let me leave, I'll only take more than I gave. 
Okay, I'll pack my stuff.
             G              G                D
Here at the end of days, my god, what have I done?
                Em             G                   
Christ, now it feels damn inhumane to get all I've 
        D      Em   G
dreamed of. Woahhhh!
 
 
[Outro]
D
Keep coming back, it works if you work it
D
So work it, you're worth it, it won't if you don't
     Em               G                  D
One day at a time, tomorrow's too late, amen.
