C
I have an unborn son
F
I have an unborn son
C                              F
and he has not begun to become one with anyone yet
Em                F
he's a box in the closet
Em                       G     G7
he's but a thought in my head, oh
C                         F
and I've seen the way you see me
C                         F
I know the sheets on your bed oh
C                          F
so don't pretend you don't see me
G                    G7
stop playing dumb or dead

   Dm               F
oh I've been reborn southernly
     C                 E
I've been your dearest friend
     Dm                    F
I've been romanced and captured
G                  G7
hung by a mustard thread oh

C F (x2)

C            F
and yes I do long to be taken
C                F
to the sea of despair
C                             F
where I can tread through the waters oh
C                   F
deep blue and threadbare
Em           F
give me your heart as a home
Em              F
I'm a nomad and I am so lonesome
Em           F
give me your eyes for to roam
G                    G7
and the wave of your hair to be baptized in

C F (x2)

Dm                   F
you are mountains to cross
        C               E
you are rivers to bathe by
Dm                 F              G                     G7
you are leading me on down by the breath of your battle cry

C F (x2)

Dm                     F
whether your steps are running towards
C                          E
or whether they're running away from
Dm                           F
you are the apple, you are a warrior
                 C                E
you know I would never put you in danger

C             F
just up on my shoulders
C             F
just up on my shoulders
C             F
just up on my shoulders
G                G7
steadfast and skyward
