verse 1:
Am F
I used to friend with trees, I have a call
Am F
I close my eyes and wait for the echo
Dm Am
And you came in a hurricane, I watched you in the dark
Dm Am
Never seen nothing like it, no one has matched the spark
verse 2:
Am F
I used to follow you, follow you for days
Am F
I slept beside you, just shadows away
Dm Am
I watched you by the fire, your hands was all aglow
Dm Am
Under the spell of a circle, I let my face show
Pre Chorus:
Am
Oh my heart is like an eagle, I love to fall from the sky
F Am
It's so beautiful, I see right through the water's edge
And I love your hands, I let them lead me into the cage
F Am
So tender but your body was warm, so frail, But your eyes like mine,
G Am F
The color of ice
Chorus:
B C#m A
You can't keep me down, I am done, I am furious
B C#m A G#m
Fear the lioness paint her face black and golden
B C#m A
You can't keep me down, I am done, I am furious
(you're my weakest part)
B C#m A G#m
Fear the lioness paint her face black and golden
(you're my weakest part)
B C#m A
You can't keep me down, I am done, I am furious
(so strong)
B C#m A G#m
Fear the lioness paint her face black and golden
B C#m A
You can't keep me down, I am done, I am furious
(I'm so strong, so strong)
B C#m A G#m
Fear the lioness paint her face black and golden
