[Intro]
C Em Dm Am Am/*B x2
 
 
[Verse 1]
C Em Dm Am Am/B Is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me?
C Em Dm I'm not cut out for all these cynical clones
Am Am/BThese hunters with cell phones
 
 
[Chorus]
Em F Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
Am G/BI don't belong and, my beloved, neither Do you
Em F Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
GI'm setting off, but not without my muse
 
 
[Verse 2]
C Em Dm What should be over burrowed under my skin
Am Am/BIn heart-stopping waves of hurt
C Em Dm I've come too far to watch some namedropping sleaze
Am Am/BTell me what are my words worth
 
 
[Chorus]
Em F Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
Am G/BI don't belong and, my beloved, neither Do you
Em F Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
GI'm setting off, but not without my muse
 
 
[Bridge]
C EmI want auroras and sad prose
Dm Am (Am/B) CI want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet
Em Dm Because I haven't moved in years
AmAnd I want you right here
C Em Dm A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground
AmWith no one around to tweet it
C Em While I bathe in cliffside pools
Dm AmWith my calamitous love and insurmountable grief
 
 
[Chorus]
Em F Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
Am G/BI don't belong and, my beloved, neither Do you
Em FThose Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
GI'm setting off, but not without my muse
CNo, not without you
