I Lost Her Chords

I Lost Her - Brighten

This is just straight chords, it's more of an acoustic version of the song if you 
don't want to play the finger picking version. 

Capo on 1


          Em
There's a hole in my heart
          Cadd9
which you used to get your air
         Am                              C     
It won't beat again for at least another year.

    Em                               Cadd9
You cut it out yourself, so you wont suffocate in there
     Am                         C     
Your patience is losing to your fear,

      Em
When collecting angels come
       Cadd9
I will rush to find your prayers
        Am                              C
They're buried in the closet under the stairs

      Em
under boxes of my dreams
        Cadd9
and the clutter of my fears
   Am                                  C
my selfishness is probably why they're here

            Em
and I kept digging my own grave
             Cadd9
I'm close to 30 miles deep
      Am                                C
I can taste the other side and it isn't pretty

               Em
and I left my lover in a bottle
      Cadd9
and I threw it out to sea
                Am                                  C
as soon as she left my fingertips I prayed she come back to me
     D
come back to me baby

G-D-Em-C
I lost her (7x)

       Em
I will never stitch the hole you cut
   Cadd9
In hopes that you will return to me
       Am                            C       
I will work to be a man yes you will see
            Am                              C       (D)
yes I will work to be your man yes you will see.

End on G
