OLD WOUNDS - John Moreland
[Verse]
D G
I wanna fall asleep forever
G D
I wanna learn to disappear
G G/D
Can you take away the mess, that’s been building in my chest
A D G
Drowning out the song I used to hear
D G
Love’s a violent word, don’t you forget it
D
I ain’t saying that you ever could
D
I’ve seen my seasons change
G G/D
I was crying out your name
A D G
Remember when we used to feel so good
[Chorus]
G D G D
So don’t forget to love me in damnation
G D Em
For the living I have earned on love gone wrong
G D G D
And we’ll open up old wounds in celebration
G D G
If we don’t bleed, it don’t feel like a song
D G
You got your honest intuition
G D
You got your cigarette smoke
G G/D
And I’m all your oldest fears, the black mark on last year
A D G
But I got the hope you let me hold
D G
So let them judge and shove us under
D
And let them do the devil’s work
D
Let them calculate the crimes
G G/D
in all our broken rhymes
A D G
But let us find the heaven following the hurt
[Chorus]
G D G D
So don’t forget to love me in damnation
G D Em
For the living I have earned on love gone wrong
G D G D
And we’ll open up old wounds in celebration
G D G
If we don’t bleed, it don’t feel like a song
