Time, curious time

Bad was the blood of the song

[Bridge]
Bm
 A string that pulled me
Am              G          
 Out of all the wrong arms, 
         D
 right into that dive bar
Am                     G     
 Something wrapped all of my 
       D
 past mistakes in barbed wire
Am                G
 Chains around my demons
D                 Am
Wool to brave the seasons
    G                D
One single thread of gold
           G    D  Em  Bm
Tied me to you

[Verse 3]
G                        D
Cold was the steel of my axe to grind
        Em                Bm
For the boys who broke my heart
G                D          Em   Bm
Now I send their babies presents
G                         D
Gold was the color of the leaves
                   Em               Bm
When I showed you around Centennial Park
G                          
Hell was the journey but it
 D              Em  Bm
 brought me heaven

[Chorus]
D
Time, wondrous time
            Em
Gave me the blues and then
 purple-pink skies
         D
And it's cool
              Em
Baby, with me
D                          Em
 And isn't it just so pretty to think
                D
All along there was some
      Em
Invisible string
             Am   G  D
Tying you to me?
Am      G   D
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Am  G D
Me
Am      G   D
