[Intro]
E A E
[Verse 1]
E A E
After one long season of waiting,
A E
After one long season of wanting,
Cmaj7 Dmaj7 E A E
I am breaking open.
E A E
My insides are pink and raw
A E
And it hurts me when I move my jaw
Cmaj7 Dmaj7 E
But I am taking tiny steps forward
[Chorus 1]
Bm7 Asus2
And I, I feel
E
Sure that my wounds will heal
Bm7 Asus2
And I, I will bloom
E B
Here in my room
E C C/B C/A
With a little water
E C C/B C/A
And a little bit of sunlight
E Bm7
And a little bit of tender mercy
Asus2 E
Tender mercy
[Verse 2]
E A E
The big trucks come up the highway
A E
And the big wheels rattle my windows
Cmaj7 Dmaj7 E A E
And night, night comes to Texas
E A E
After one blind season alone in here
A E
After one long sweltering summer
Cmaj7 Dmaj7 E
I, I'm going to find the exit
[Chorus 2]
Bm7 Asus2
And I will go
E
To the house of a friend I know
Bm7 Asus2
And I, I will let
E B
Myself forget
E C C/B C/A
With a little water
E C C/B C/A
And a little bit of sunlight
E Bm7
And a little bit of tender mercy
Asus2 E
Tender mercy
