Dm                            F
Drawn into the frost on the glass was a map
                              A#
Pointing to my secret hiding place
It lead you to the tree with the split in its trunk
On the way into your family's yard
In that tree, you saw I brought the dog back to life

I watch you from the branches while you stared
From the ground, with a look I couldn't understand
So I said "leave me alone
If your only words are ugly ones"
And you just smiled
And said "come and show me how it's done"

Dm                  A#
You dug up your old bird
                           F
And you held her to your chest
                          A#
As I breathed life back into her lungs
Dm                               A#
And she blinked and flapped her wings
                     F
She sang a familiar song
Before she took to the air
                         C
And cut a path into the woods

            Dm                    A#
And then I cried, because all my life
         F                 C
I have known something was off
               Dm
But you just shrugged and said:
           A#
"it ain't just you"

Slipping on the pavement where we ran
From the ghosts that you saw
Behind the cellar door
That's the way that you showed me
That I wasn't quite alone
That you'd also touched the dead before
