Hollow Bones

C Fmaj7 G7 C/G You started out a solemn soul Em Eyes of sterling and wings of gold F Hollow bones filled with hope Fm Help to take you where you want to go C/G So you packed up all your things and went Em But weight accompanies time well spent F The hollow spaces you once knew Fm Became heavy as you grew and grew C/G A burden it is to travel light Em Not on the body but on the mind F Let it down every once in a while Fm Come back home after mile after mile C Fmaj7 G7 C Fill your books with C Pressed plants and poetry Fmaj7 Empty your heart of the things that you’ve seen C Fill your books with C Pressed plants and poetry Fmaj7 G7 Empty your heart of the things that you’ve seen C But don’t let me keep you Em I know you have soaring to do Fmaj7 Just please don’t let go of me Fm7 Through all of the things that you see C I always knew you would leave Em Right now I’m just trying to find peace Fmaj7 Just promise you will stay true Fm7 But do not let me keep you C Just promise you will return Em And tell of all the things you’ve learned Fmaj7 But don’t let me keep you Fm7 I don’t know what I’ll do.
