Love Song For Lady Earth chords by Del Water Gap

• Capo on 2nd

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: F#

Difficulty: Intermediate

Verse:
E
Now
    F#m
More than any man I know
     C#m
I strap a spacesuit to my chest
          A      B       E
And watch the planet that I left, it rises slow
     F#m
More than any dream I've dreamt
    C#m
With her Cailin Russo neck
   A        B          E
I can see her from the deck out by the road
     F#m
More than any girl I've had
    C#m
She could drink and take a drag
      A             B        E
When you're young, that's all you have, and this I know

Chorus:
C#m    A   E    B
Love's not simple here anymore
C#m     A      F#m        Am           E
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home


Verse:
E
She,
     F#m
More than any pretty thing
     C#m
I will miss her most of all
        A     B         E
When her towers start to fall into the sea
     F#m
More than any life I'd lead
      C#m
I know that one was the best
     A          B        E
'Cause I spent it on my chest between her knees
       F#m
And her rivers, still they run
    C#m
When they crash into the sun
      A       B        E
In some life will I be young enough to see?


Chorus:
C#m    A   E    B
Love's not simple here anymore
  C#m   A     F#m           Am
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home

Solo:
E F#m A G# C#m A B x2

Chorus:
C#m    A   E  B
Love's not simple here anymore
  C#m       A    F#m         Am        E
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home

Verse:
    F#m
More than any time before
    C#m
I think I finally figured out
   A      B             E
Being happy with yourself and with your life


...(take off the capo for this part)

Intro:
E G#m G# A Am E C#m A B E

Verse:
E     G#m
We got pretty stoned
     G#
With your hands on your chest
     A
And my ego

Verse:
  E        G#m
And we, we clung to the roof
    G#          A
And the morning laid rest all around you
      Am       E          C#m
And I won't forget how you looked in that dress
   A       B   E
On the day that first I met you

Verse:
E           G#m
You had all your friends
   G#            A
And a camera to make them look vintage
E          G#m
And I, I felt like a king
    G#           A
When you leaned yourself into my window
  Am          E     C#m
To sing me a song that I wrote for my mom
    A    B        E
On the day that first I met you

Verse:
G#         A
And it only took a day
     G#                  A
With that tattoo of yours, and the look on your face
E         G#m
You told marry you quick
G#           A
And I think that you're funny
E      G#m  G#
So much so I think
          A
That I could be your baby
Am           E        C#m
And I still regret every word that I said
    A    B       E
On the day that first I met you
