Black Locust Grove

From the queen's lace
Moss and limestone
From the fur and the fang
Of the hollows
From the creek banks
Under bird song
For the frogs that will sing
Into my bones
From here
In here
From here into my art
I wanna keep it there
Ever my [A]home
I know to [C7]feel
In every cell of my [A]parts
Under geode
Broken fossil
Every toad
Garter snake
Sleeping 'possum

Home in tɾees where the people don't crowd me
Let the Green River flood my [A]heart

Carved into [C7]the dirt
In every grove
Every cave
Sewn into [C7]the land
In every barn
Every grave
Torn into [C7]the linings of my [A]mark
Sworn unto [C7]the bleedings of my [A]animal parts
My art
It's from here into [C7]my [A]art
I wanna keep it there
Ever I ɾoam
Absorb the smell
In every cell of my [A]parts
In the sweet space
Blood of my [A]home
Growing plant
Solid ɾock
Aging gravestone

Home in tɾees where the people don't crowd me
Let the Green River flood my [A]heart
