[Intro]
C Em Dm Am Am/B x2
[Verse 1]
C Em Dm
Is it romantic how all of my
Am Am/B
elegies eulogize me?
C Em
I'm not cut out for all
Dm
these cynical clones
Am Am/B
These hunters with cell phones
[Chorus]
Em
Take me to the lakes, where
F
all the poets went to die
Am
I don't belong and, my beloved,
C
neither do you
Em
Those Windermere peaks look
F
like a perfect place to cry
G
I'm setting off, but not
without my muse

C Em
What should be over burrowed
Dm
under my skin
Am Am/B
In heart-stopping waves of hurt
C Em
I've come too far to watch some
Dm
namedropping sleaze
Am Am/B
Tell me what are my words worth
[Chorus]
Em
Take me to the lakes, where all
F
the poets went to die
Am
I don't belong and, my beloved,
C
neither do you

Those Windermere peaks look

like a perfect place to cry

I'm setting off, but not
without my muse

[Bridge]
C Em
I want auroras and sad prose
Dm Am (Am/B)
I want to watch wisteria grow
C
right over my bare feet
Em Dm
Because I haven't moved in years
Am
And I want you right here
C Em
A red rose grew up out of ice
frozen ground
Dm Am
With no one around to tweet it
C Em
While I bathe in cliffside pools
Dm
With my calamitous love and
Am
insurmountable grief
[Chorus]
Em
Take me to the lakes, where all
the poets went to die
Am
I don't belong and, my beloved,
C
neither do you
Em
Those Windermere peaks look like
F
a perfect place to cry
G
I'm setting off, but not without my muse
C
No, not without you
