C#m                            E
So you trying to do what they did
                           B
Your friends that turn to liquid
                     F#
And got lost in the sea
                       C#m
And now you’re drowning me
                             E
With your talk of full eat clovers
                       B
You turn to rocks and no man
                   F#
To be the ambient harm
                       C#m
But it’s bruising your karma

Oh I wish my arms were wider
I wish that I could hide you
So you can rest and repair

Chorus:
                        C#m
Without the blanket of sorrow
                   F#
The thick and the grey
                C#m
Your blanket of wool
              F#
So heavy and stain
       G#m    F#/A#     E
And it only weighs you down

So you thought that getting sober
Would mean your life was over
I don’t think it’s that bad
I don’t think it’s that sad
Just you sleep a little baby
Leave the world alone and later
If you wake up alive

Chorus:
That old blanket of sorrow
Could be feathers and down
Your blanket of wool
Would leave you alone
And I can love you till you drown

Come to me let’s drown
Come baby let’s drown
In feathers and down
