You Swan Go On

    C              C/B       Am         G               F
As good as I could possibly imagine my life getting, it did
        Em
After I met you
             F                                       G                          Am
The way you reached inside my chest and pulled out things and sent them off in breaths blew
    C              C/B             Am             G                 F
And as good as it got with all the layers peeling off, and though I writhed
                  Em
I could not upset you
           F                            G                        Am
With your hand down my throat you held on to my heart and pumped blood through
                C      C/B                  Am          G
And then “it’s time to go” you said, “it’s time to go out
             F         Em
You little gray goose
              F
Get out from under my wing” you said
      G                         Am
“you swan, go on, go out you're turned loose”
            C     Em
Oh so it’s over
          G
Oh so we died
            C         C/B           Am         G
Oh so your hand on my heart pumping blood went limp
      F      G
and oh, I fly
              C  C/B Am G F Em F G C
Oh swan inside.
