When it holds me

Baby boy you're super cool, I know you're scared, so was I

Gbm                 A
Was enlightenment found?
             Bm                    D
No, but I'm trying, taking it one year at a time
Gbm                        A
Oh, oh, can you hear the sound?
                 Bm
It's shimmering higher
                     D
On the beach, I'm building a pyre -you sew a boat in by the tide-
Gbm                          A                      Bm                  Gmaj7
I, I, I know you'll show me how I'll know when it's time to take off my ropes
                   D
And step into the choir
