I Love You Too Death

F                       G
Let's go camping in the cold,
                   C        Am
Make a fire, buy a tent
F                        G
Envision leather getting old,
                          C       Am
Re-send pigeons that were sent
F                    G
Try to memorize your smell,
                   C       Am
It reminds me of a field
F                       G
Crickets clearer than a bell
                              C       Am
Have all their guys recast in steel
F                           G
Birds don't cry when echoes quit,
                        C       Am
They trail off into the fog
F                          G
Autumn hurts far less than sticks,
                           C       Am
Knowing winter's five feet tall
F              G
Generations of defeat
                      C        Am
All assuming your the worst
F                   G
They never tied the cans
                     C        Am
To the back end of a hearse
F                         G
Take your hand against my own,
                          C        Am
If there's a finger I can grip
F                  G
Reassure me at the ace
                               C        Am
Mine's a black heart you could flip
F                              G
I've come to terms with what I have,
                               C        Am
What's been given, what's been asked
F                        G
Turn my back against the sea,
                          C         Am
And beg the serpent for a dance
F                         G
But in the red dirt muddy towns,
                   C        Am
Celebration of the dark
F                        G
Children walking hand in hand
                        C        Am
With the pygmies in the park
F                      G
I can't touch you only once,
                            C        Am
You always leave me wanting more
F                          G
So keep my feet within the house,
                                C        Am
And stick my toes just past the door
F                       G
Let me know when I'm in love,
                       C
Let me die when I'm in love
