Joanna Newsom -  Jackrabbits chords
Start Jamming...
[D] I was tired of being [C] drunk
My [Am] face cracked like [F] a joke
So [C] I swung through here like a brace of jack rabbits
[Bb] With their necks so [F] broke
[D] I stumbled [Dm] at [C] the door
[Am] I knocked [F] against the jamb
And [C] I scrabbled at your [G] chest
Like a mute with [Bb] my fists of [F] ham
[G] Trying to [Am] tell you that [F]
I am
[C] [G]
[A] Telling you [F]
I can
[Em] I [Am]
can
[Eb] Love you [C] again
Love you again
I'm
[Dm] squinting [F] towards the [C] E
My [Am] faith makes [F] me a doe
But you can [C] take my hand in the [G] darkness, darling
[Bb] Like the length [F] of rope
[Dm] I shaped up [C] overnight, you know
[Am] The day after [F] she died
When [C] I saw my heart and I'll tell you, darling
[Bb] It was open [F] wide
What [G] we're [Am] telling you [F] I am
[C] [A] Telling you [F] I can
I [C] [Em] [Am] can
[Eb]
Love you [C] again
Love [Bb] [C] you again
And [Dm] it can have no [C] bounds, you know
[Am] It can have [F] no end
You can take my [C] hand in the darkness, [G] darling
[Bb] When you need [F] a friend
[Dm] And it can change in [C] shape or form
[Am] But never [F] change inside
Well, the water, it ran [C] [G] deep, my darling
[Bb] Where it don't run [F] wide
[Dm] The feather [F] of a [C] hawk was [B] bound
[A]
Bound [F] around my neck
[C] A portis made of [G]
fig
The eager [Bb] little [F] vulture's peck
And a [D]
verse [C] I read in church
[A] And Matthew [F] spoke to me
Said there's [C] a flame that moves like [G] Ludum
And [Bb] says you will be [F] free
[G] Only [Am] tell me that [F] I can
Tell me that I can
I [C] [Em]
[Am] can
[Eb] Love you [C] again
Love [Fm] you [C] again
[Eb] Love you [C] again
Love [Bb] [C] you again
[Eb]
Love you again
[C]
Love you again
[Eb] Love you wagon, [C]
love [Bb] [C] you wagon Love [Eb]
[C]
you wagon,
[Eb] love you [C] wagon
