Temporary Knife

Intro: 
A    D  A 


[Verso 1]
 
A                                
Ive kept Octobers crumbling leaves 
D                   A 
The ashes of their doom 
A                       
And I head among the yesterdays 
D            A 
Of a love I knew 
 


[Verso 2]
 
A                     C 
That is to say I too remember 
       D            A 
In the winter of my mind 
A                          C 
In the yesterday theres attachment 
       D      A 
In the memories that I find 
 


[Verso 3]
 
A                        
The leave, the dawn on window shades 
D                   A 
Before it tumbles through 
A                    
Reminding me that yesterday 
D               A 
Was of a love I knew 
 


[Verso 4]
 
A                           C 
The early sun brings to my wicked thoughts 
     D         A 
That you must forget 
A                         C 
So I ignore the light of morning 
     D                  A 
And wait for the sun to set 
 


[Verso 5]
 
A                         
For all the things that used to be 
D                     A 
That once were once before 
A                    
Belong to my what could have been 
D              A 
That isnt anymore 
 


[Verso 6]
 
A                          C 
And I have tasted now the apple 
         D           A 
From a garden in my life 
A                          C 
Somehow I must endure the memory 
        D      A
