Chords for Blue Rose Code ft Karine Polwart - Edina (The Quay Sessions)

This is a song about growing up in Edinburgh, running [E] away and realising that like most things [G] I'm the architect of my own [E] downfall.
_ _ It's _ _ _ called Edina. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ [E] often think about the night, the times before I learned that all my days have got a number.
[E] _
Chasing all the girls up Lily Hill, bare tested in the rain.
[F#] _ _ _ [C#m] And the green and white on a Saturday, burling through the turnstiles, singing all the way down Easter Road.
[A] Would you forgive [E] me, would you say Edina?
_ _ [F#] _
_ [E] And I'm still listening for the van, I'm countin' change from out my pocket for an ice cream from the man.
[A] And I'm skinning on my knees darling, and I'm running from the [E] polis, hiding seek along Great Junction [C#m] Street.
But I always felt this awful shame, coming from a scheme and I never took my education with [A] sole.
Would you [E] forgive me, would you say Edina? _
_ [B] _ _ [C#m] Cause I will never grow, never will I grow old again I know, [A] I know.
And everywhere I be, _ everywhere I go, I hold your [E] sorrow in my bones.
[C#m] And even though I said, even though I swore I'm never coming home [E] again I know.
Would you forgive me, would you say [A] Edina?
Listen, listen, listen, listen.
[F#] _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] Would you forgive [A] me, would you say Edina?
[F#] _ _ _
_ [E] Cause I'm whistling in the dark, and I've been trying to hold a candle, I've been trying to change my feeling.
I've been crying in my sleep, and when she wakes to give me comfort I say I can't recall my sorrow.
[C#m]
Cause I hold you to my breast, and I've been keeping all your secrets.
Maybe one day you will [G#] release me, so [A] would you forgive [A] me, would [F#] you say Edina? _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ Cause I will never grow, never will I grow old again I know, I [A] know.
And everywhere I go, everywhere I [E] go, I hold your sorrow in my bones.
[C#m] And even though I said, _ even though I swore I'm never coming home again I [A] know.
Would you [E] forgive me, would you say Edina?
Yes.
[F#] _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ Oh, would you forgive me Edina?
[F#] _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
Very well. _ _ _
