Cavetown - Evergreen: chords

              G               C
We're in the rain, in outer space
            A7sus4
And I can't fathom an explanation for what
       C
we're doing in this place
          G                    C
Now your hair clings to your cheek
           A7sus4
I brush it aside ever so gently,
               C
thank you for being here for me

Chorus:
Em7      C              G
It's not easy staying clean,
wouldn't it be nice to be evergreen
Em7                 C                  G
It feels like I'm slipping behind a screen
of nighlights and suicidal tendencies
Em7       C            G
It's not easy feeling cold like burning
numb hands under a water stream
Em7             C                 G
Wouldn't it be nice to be evergreen

We're in the snow, under the milky way
And no matter how hard I try to,
I can't possibly explain
My shaking hands and my breaking bones
There's nothing like whispers in
your mind to keep you aware that you're alone

Chorus

C                          G
In moments like this it's hard to breathe steadily
C                             G
The world is spinning and my hands shake
uncontrollably
F                           C
Life's a hair, one gentle blow and it could be gone
F                        Asus4 A
And I've never felt so afraid

We're on the earth, on solid ground
Do you have any idea how lucky you are to be around
You're not alone, please never forget
My arms are your second home
