[Intro] Abm E B x2
[Verse 1]
Abm E B
And what will you say to me tonight?
Abm E B
Lord knows that I'm naked, and bright-eyed
Abm E B
With my hands full of stones, I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
But, my stones, you thought them ugly, common rock
Abm E B
Was it gold you wanted, darling, all along?
Abm E B
But I'm spiny as a tree of fir, and you knew to touch me it would hurt
Abm E B
So I won't desert you, when the winters, they grow long
Abm E B
Well I won't desert you, when the winters, they grow long
[Chorus]
Abm E B
Cause when the wind stole my walls, I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
And with my hands full of stones, I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
[Interlude] Abm E B
[Verse 2]
Abm E B
Cause when you lay your head down at the end of the day
Abm E B
I wish it was your work that you could put away
Abm E B
And when you pick your feet up for the steps that you take
Abm E B
Would you ever notice who was in your way?
And when you look at her, her hands covered in clay and a smile on her face, did the thought just escape you
That maybe your time and your money are not enough to save you
That maybe your time and your money just won't save you
Just won't save you
But you hold your inky black veins
And I'll keep my ghostly white pains, to myself, most of the time, anyway
And you hold your dark-pointed wit, and I don't want any of it
No, I never wanted any of it
[Chorus]
Abm E B
Cause when the wind stole my walls, I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
And with my hands full of stones, I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
[Hook]
Cause I wilt all rosy in deception
Tried peelin' off these old impressions
That stuck to my skin like a bee's legs in pollen
And clung to my shirt as my hands met the dirt and my knees kissed the earth
And I hope you're sure
Well I hope you're sure
[Chorus]
Abm E B
Cause when the wind stole my walls, I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
And with my hands full of stones, I've never felt less alone
Abm E B
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
Lord knows I've never felt less alone
