C#m F#m E A A
[Verse 1]
C#m C#m F#m
Black roots in the ground, suck the water out the rivers
F#m A
Telephone back home, tell herâ
whatâ
she's missing
C#m C#m
Polaroids washingâ
up on the shore
F#m A
There are picturesâ
of girls, and words like "forever" written
[Refrain]
B B E
Like a spider racing into the sky
C#m A E
There's a black tree rising and no one knows why
B B E
Get's stuck in your shoes, it get's under your clothes
C#m A E
The wind that's blowing cuts down to the bone
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C#m F#m A
All Hell does know my name, a black tree rising
C#m F#m A
I'm the shade that'll put you away, a black tree rising
B B C#m A
Hope you don't mind if I close the door
B B C#m A
See that right there is true romance, I'm sure
[Chorus]
E G#m B G#m
Get up, shut up, I have a friend that knows your name
G#m
I know what you're thinking
E G#m B
You won't go outside, because you haven't been sleeping
G#m
And it wouldn't be nice if she knew
C#m A
You were acting like a spider racing into the sky
E F#m
There's a black tree rising and no one knows why
C#m A E
Get's stuck in your shoes, it get's under your clothes
F#m
The wind that's blowing cuts down to the bone
[Verse 2]
