Cutting me open

Then healing me fine

  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
            D
My past mistakes in barbed wire
Am                G
 Chains around my demons

Wool to brave the seasons

Tied me to you

Now I send their
 D/F#          Em  Bm
Babies presents
 G
Gold was the color
        D/F#
Of the leaves

When I showed you
  Em               Bm
Around Centennial Park

Hell was the journey but
      D/F#     Em   Bm
It brought me heaven

[Refrão]

Time, wondrous time

Gave me the blues and

Then purple-pink skies
          D
And it's cool
