C
How was the cold
                  G
Along the path I determined to hold
                           Am
Although it coiled round a perilous wing
                         G
Blinded with hot gas and carving off steam

There was still smoke

C
Burnt in the grass
                     G
Reclaim a portion of desolate south
                         Am
Add in the stirrings and long lost fatigue
                        G
Barrels that hide us in hair fallen heed

Then became sound


[Chorus:]
F
And I wasn't afforded a love
              G
Covered up in hard earned clay
F
I wasn't accorded a stop
             G
Always in it so much more
F
I wasn't afforded a love
              Am          G
Covered up in hard earned clay
                         C            G          Am          G
And time wasn't the only cavernous 

[Verse 2:]
I hope my contour charts show up via river
Out to the only ocean
There's something peaceful that goes out via river
Out to the ocean
I was peaceful standing, I was open

[Chorus:]
And I wasn't afforded a love
Covered up in hard earned clay
I wasn't accorded a stop
Always in it so much more
I wasn't afforded a love
Covered up in hard earned clay

Time wasn't the only cavernous
Time wasn't the only cavernous
Time wasn't the only cavernous
Time wasn't the only coward
