The Roches - Family Of Bones


CAPO: 5th Fret



[Intro]
G Dm C Em D G C G C G
F C D Em F C

[Verse 1]
G F C
These tiny bones, I lay them on my life
Em D C G
They are you and you and you
F C
Arranged to be the skeleton of love
G
I sit inside them at attention
C G D
Like a dog waiting for its owner to return


[Bridge]
G Dm C
A garbage truck could flatten them into the road
G D7 G
Or a wind could scatter them apart


[Verse 2]
F C
These tiny bones, I lay them on my life
Em D C G
They are you and you and you
F C
As fragile as the remnants of a bird
D C
Without the guts
D
Without the word


[Bridge]
Em F C G C
With rain into the gutter, they could flush away
G C F C
And there, everything I love, would go


[Verse 3]
G F C
These pearl bones, I wish they could be safe
D C G C G
So few, so few
F C D Em F
Hung together with a thin string or something
C
A family of bones
