As good as I could possibly imagine my life getting, it did
Em
After I met you
F G Am
The way you reached inside my chest and pulled out things and sent them off in breaths blew
C C/B Am G F
And as good as it got with all the layers peeling off, and though I writhed
Em
I could not upset you
F G Am
With your hand down my throat you held on to my heart and pumped blood through
C C/B Am G
And then “it’s time to go” you said, “it’s time to go out
F Em
You little gray goose
F
Get out from under my wing” you said
G Am
“you swan, go on, go out you're turned loose”
C Em
Oh so it’s over
G
Oh so we died
C C/B Am G
Oh so your hand on my heart pumping blood went limp
F G
and oh, I fly
C C/B Am G F Em F G C
Oh swan inside.
