	        verse 1  
Am           D 
And being outside your wisdom 
G                   Em 
And stretching the truth 
Am         D 
I was the oil and lavender 
G              Em 
But never for you 
Am           D 
You had to toil and sit in 
G                     Em 
The sun browned your skin 
Am                 D 
It burned all the alabaster 
G                       Em 
Till the ask choked the wind 
  
Chorus 1 Am D They say it's the longest light G Em To ever have shown Am D They say it's the longest lie G Em And that nobody knows Am D They say it's the longest lie G Em And I still taste the smoke
verse 2 Am D Now only ungrateful remember (?) G Em To sleep in the stone Am D With all of your grace and thunder G Em The roll and the boom Am D I was the cloak and dagger G Em That snuck into you Am D And we have but one (left? /life?) finger G Em That's pointing at us
Chorus 2 Am D And that would be the longest night G Em That chilled ___ to bone Am D That would be the longest night G Em To sleep here alone Am D That would be the longest night G G/F# Em I think you'd be warmer closer to me
