The Lakes chords by Taylor Swift (Ver. 2)

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
D   A        Bm      G
Is it romantic how all of my elegies eulogize me?
D    A           Bm
I'm not cut out for all these cynical clones
   G
These hunters with cell phones


Chorus:
 A                 Bm
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
     G      D
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you
 A                Bm
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
       G            A
I'm setting off, but not without my muse

Verse 2:
 D       A       Bm
What should be over burrowed under my skin
   G
In heart-stopping waves of hurt
 D       A         Bm
I've come too far to watch some namedropping sleaze
     G
Tell me what are my words worth


Chorus:
 A                  Bm
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
     G                 D
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you
 A                 Bm
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
       G           A
I'm setting off, but not without my muse


Bridge:
D          A
I want auroras and sad prose
Bm         G         D
I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet
 A             Bm
'Cause I haven't moved in years
  G
And I want you right here
D        A     Bm
A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground
    G
With no one around to tweet it
 D         A
While I bathe in cliffside pools
      Bm           G
With my calamitous love and insurmountable grief


Chorus:
 A                  Bm
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
     G                 D
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you
 A                  Bm
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
       G            A
I'm setting off, but not without my muse
         D
No, not without you
