        A
Errant heat to the star
         D
And the rain let in
The hawser rolls,
     F#m                  D
the vessel's whole and Christ, it's thin

Chorus:
           E             A
Well I'd know that you'd offer
         E                    D
Would reveal it, though it's soft and flat
                           F#m
Won't repeat it, cull and coffer's that
         A                 Bm
For the soffit, hang this homeward
                      F#m
Pry it open with your love
         E                      D
Sending lost and alone standing offers

It is steep, it is stone
Such recovery
From the daily press, the deepest nest
In keeper's keep

All the news at the door
Such a revelry
Well, it's hocked inside
Of everything you said to me

Chorus:
        E            A
It was found what we orphaned
        E                D
Didn't mention it would serve us picked
          F#m
Said your love is known
             A
I'm standing up on it
          Bm
Aren't we married?
                      F#m
I ain't living in the dark no more
             E                      D
It's not a promise, I'm just gonna call it

Heavy mitted love, our love is a star
Sure some hazardry
For the light before and after
Most indefinitely
