Willow Tabulatur von Emilie Autumn

G
Willow, weep for me 
          D
Bow your tallest tree 
             Am
Down to the infamous hands 
           C             D
Of someone no one understands 
          G
I'm not unique in this 
               D
It's based on none but my mistake
           Am
At night I lie awake 
             C                  D
Thinking of all the hearts I'd happily break 

      Am
It's cruel, I know 
               D
At least they tell me so 
              Am                            G
Well someone lock me up and throw away the key 
                            C
Because I'm not ashamed, oh no 
     D
Oh, willow 

        G
That I only write love songs 
     D
To those whom I don't love 
        Am
I only reach for him 
               C               D
Who's tied to someone else's glove 
              G
That which I hold inside 
         D
Which I admire and deride 
            C                D
Which I protect and hide is yours 

         G
Willow, weep for me 
            D
Don't think I don't see
               Am
This life I'm living in two
                C               D
But still it's something I must do
          G
I'm not unique in this 
           D
Nor am I special, sweet or kind 
           Am
I court a thousand smiles 
       C              D
Yet I keep my own to hide behind

      Am
It's cruel I know 
               D
At least they tell me so 
              Am                            G
Well someone lock me up and throw away the key 
                            C
Because I'm not ashamed, oh no 
     D
Oh, willow 

        G
That I only write love songs 
     D
To those whom I don't love 
        Am
I only reach for him 
               C               D
Who's tied to someone else's glove 
              G
That which I hold inside 
         D
Which I admire and deride 
            C                D
Which I protect and hide is yours

  Am            G
Slander and dissention 
         D               Am
They're parlour games to me 
            G                 D
Papers overrun with lies too mad to mention 
Am                  G
You say they never hurt you 
    D                Am
No consequence, I'm happy 
                    G
We're much too far above it all 
    D                  Am
But oh no, that's not true 
                                  Em
These wicked pastimes take their toll 
                               Am
These tyrant vices break your soul 
                      Em
Deliver me from all I am 
           G
And all I never want to be 
Am
I love you (Oh willow, willow, willow)
  D
Doubt me not 
    C                  E
Rewrite this plot for all to see 


       G
And I only write love songs 
     D
To those whom I don't love 
        Am
I only reach for him 
               C               D
Who's tied to someone else's glove 
              G
That which I hold inside 
         D
Which I admire and deride 
            C                D
Which I protect and hide is yours

Am          G               D                 Am
Bend your branches to the ground and hold me close 
        G              D                 Am
Let me harmonize with all that's good in you 
            G            D
Share your sympathy and weep for me 
     Am
Oh, willow, heal the hearts I've broken 
 C                 D
Make me pure and start my song anew 

G  D  Am  C  D

       G
For I only write love songs 
     D
To those whom I don't love 
        Am
I only reach for him 
               C               D
Who's tied to someone else's glove 
              G
That which I hold inside 
         D
Which I admire and deride 
            C                D
Which I protect and hide is yours
               G
Is yours, is yours
