F
How was the cold
                  C
Along the path I determined to hold
                           A#
Although it coiled round a perilous wing
Dm                        C
Blinded with hot gas and carving off steam
There was still smoke

Burnt in the grass
Reclaim a portion of desolate south
Add in the stirrings and long lost fatigue
Barrels that hide us a hair fallen heed
Then became sound

Chorus:
A#
And I wasn't afforded a love
               C
Covered up in hard earned clay
A#
I wasn't accorded a stop
              C
Always in it so much more
A#
I wasn't afforded a love
Dm                          C
Covered up in hard earned clay
                            F
And time wasn't the only cavernous

I hope my contour charts show up via rivers
Out to the only ocean
There's something peaceful that goes out via river
Out to an ocean

Chorus:
I was peaceful, standing, I was open
I wasn't afforded a love
Covered up in hard earned clay
I wasn't accorded a stop
Always in it so much more
I wasn't afforded a love
Covered up in hard earned clay

Time wasn't the only cavernous
Time wasn't the only cavernous
Time wasn't the only cavernous
Time wasn't the only coward
