Lucy Kaplansky - This Is Mine
INTRO: G G/F# G/E G/D C Bm C D G
G/F#
I can bend back
G/E
And reach the days
G/D
When everything was new
C Bm
When witches were birds that lived in trees
C D G
When dreams were movies god made for me
G/F#
I talked to dogs
G/E
I knew why trees and kids cried
G/D
Why snow was white
C
Why people died
Bm
In show and tell, I talked about the shapes of clouds
C D
And all the schoolyard angels who protected me
CHORUS: Em
C Em
And I am here
C Em
And this is mine
C Bm
I'm everywhere
C D G G/F# G/E G/D G
Flying in line
G/F#
Always looking for
G/E
A place to rest
G/D
I hid in trees
C
And built my nest
Bm
I made my nest of buried things
C D G
And the roots ran like secrets through six year rings
G/F#
I found that secret places
G/E
Were better places
G/D C
Nicer places, that villains could not find
Bm
I do not lie, these places are mine
C D
I lean and bend, to where I begin and end
CHORUS: Em
C Em
I am here
C Em
And this is mine
C Bm
I'm everywhere
C
Flying in line, in line
CHORUS: Em
C Em
And I am here
C Em
And this is mine
C Bm
I'm everywhere
D
Flying in line
