Paint Or Pollen

• G

Capo II

Intro: G Bm Dm C G D G X 2

G               Bm
don't move an inch
Dm              C
listen for a singing
                 G                      D            G
hitting in your bones like they were forts
G                    Bm
if you hear what I hear
Dm               C
don't just sit there
                        G
we are only strumming water
              D          G
on this most unlikely court

(Same chords continue)

you got blown shore to shore
not quite sailing
riding on the trade winds of age
things blow in
don't just cast them
say it now, what you want to stay

I was once on a long boat
star mapping the night roots
lightening the load
just in case
but things float in to be taken
if you don't know by now what will stay

G
so don't move an inch
               Bm
don't move a single second
            C                                      D
until the shade behind your thoughts is not confused
                 G
because I felt your inch
              Bm
I know the scent as well as any
                C
clot in your guard
and all paints or pollen
                D
brick in your mortar
petals to soaking
         C
on the cracks
thicker or finer
              D
milk in your water
black in your primer
                C
wood in your brush
now I am your cloth
               D
whatever you want
the best is upon us
C      
its a finicky muse 
                D
with only potential
G-Bm
to choose
G-Bm
to choose

G-Bm until the end
