Bright Eyes Lime Tree (ver 4) chords

Lime Tree (ver 4) by Bright Eyes

Capo on 3rd



             D                                         F#m
I keep floating down the river but the ocean never comes

 D                                                G
Since the operation I heard you're breathing just for one

        Em                                 A7
Now everything is imaginary, especially what you love

       Em                                        G                   D
You left another message said it's done, It's done

            D                                              F#m
When I hear beautiful music it's always from another time

        D                               G
Old friends I never visit, I remember what they're like

    Em                                     A7
Standing on a doorstep full of nervous butterflies

 Em                                      G                               D
Waiting to be asked to come inside  Just come inside

                Em                   A7
But I keep go-o-o-o-oing out

            F#m                                 Em                                  G
I can't sleep next to a stranger when I'm coming down

        Em                                        G                      D
It's 8 a.m. my heart is beating too loud,  Too loud

         Em                   A7                   F#m                      G                  
          G
Don't be-e-e-e so ama-a-a-azing or I'll miss you too much

   Em                                                  G          D
I felt something that I had never touched


D                                   F#m
Everything gets smaller now the further that I go

                     D                                         G
Towards the mouth and the reunion of the Known and the Unknown

      Em                                   A7
Consider yourself lucky if you think of it as home

                                                    
                       Em                                                   G              D
You can move mountains with your misery if you don't, If you don't

    D                                               F#m
It comes to me in fragments, even those still split in two

                D                                                      G
Under the leaves of that old Lime Tree I stood examining the fruit

                 Em                                             A7
Some were ripe and some were rotten, I felt nauseous with the truth

                 Em                                   G           D
There will never be a time more opportune


               Em        A7
So I just won't be late

                     F#m                             Em                  G
The window closes, shock rolls over in a tidal wave

       Em                                           G           D
And all the color drains out of the frame

       Em                  A7          F#m                      G
So pleased with a daydream that now living is no good

          Em                                                G
I took off my shoes and walked into the woods

         F#7                                          G     D
I felt lost and found with every step I took
