Em C
We could hardly tell the difference between one year and another
D B7
Sun like pouring whiskey, snow like shedding skins of lovers
Em C
And, I grew up with magic; free and wild as bindweed
D B7 C
Pushing for the boundary, pushing through the edges of the concrete
G G* Em
I'm the girl that bought a round-trip cross the Rubicon
B7 C Em
And I'm not sure that even I know where I'm coming from
Em C
Sentimental tango when I was just fourteen
D B7
I could hear Astaire and Rogers tap their way across the screen
Em C
Oh, bullied and belittled, until the sun set in the concrete
D B7 C
I wore my sister's black skirt, all dressed up for Halloween
Em C
We could hardly tell the difference between the shouting and the quiet
D B7
It was the path of least resistance to stage my own private riot
Em C
And the walls tumbled like Babel, down around my feet
D B7 C
Rhyme came in deliverance rising through the wreckage and the concrete
G G* Em
I'm the girl that bought a round-trip cross the Rubicon
B7 C Em
I'm not sure that even I know where I'm coming from
Em C
For a girl who loves her words, yeah, she loves her silence more
D B7
Found a better example of what hearts and tongues are for
Em C
There is truth in your arm's love, there is truth in this song
D B7 C
There is truth in the concrete and the nails that our lives are built upon
