Drop D tuning
Capo 2nd fret
Notes: don’t hammer the A chord every time, maybe every two or three times. Then Drop D
is optional. Also the chord before the A could also be Em but I think this one sounds better.

You are naked
Standing at the other end of this poison arrow
I am William Tell and you are the girl with the golden apple
You are hungry to be swept off your feet
You wanna do this out in the open
But my aim is often weak and you can feel my shoulders sloping
Your split ends will end up falling anyway
Until the wait of the apple world gets to turn them all grey
And your eyes, they need calming down
You are wise and you are free to let the apple touch the ground
Oh keep standing tall this won’t hurt at all.

You are half asleep, half of a girl half of a child
Maybe five feet deep as tall as the world up to your eyes
You are hogging all the sheets, often balling them up
Often drawing a line, spending half of your time deciding to roll over
And when you do I will be there with a smile
Standing far and wide and I’ll pull you in much closer
In my dreams you are queen of the ball
Sometimes you off my head to me that’s a happy ending
For you I’d fall and that wouldn’t hurt at all
Not at all
While this woman is sleeping here
I tell her what I came to find and I wake her
Powerful but hardly will she ever hear this
The secrets that I’ve saved up
We get famous indeed for all our shyness
Aint that sweet aint this a fine mess we’re in
So deep let go in the process and just let things be easy
And an honest boy you’ve made me because the solace that you gave me
Proved that problems aint the main thing to fall upon
You arch your sloping your shoulders
Well any story’s tale is tall
Reminding love is allegorious
I mean the goal here after all
is not to hurt at all
