Molasses

	  		Am F  
You are made of sugar, milk and molasses 
C E7 
So, little darlin', you attract all the bees 
Am F 
You are the gazer, you are the attraction 
C E7 
It takes a little vanity to know what it means 

F G Am 
I know it 'cause you wrote it down a hundred times 
D7 E7 Am 
But you say that you're doin' just fine 

F C  
Say there's something better 
G Am 
But today, there is a cold moon rising 
F C 
And you wanted something better 
D7 E7  
But tonight, tonight you're giving up 

Am F  
I asked a question, give me an answer 
C E7 
You'll say the word, and I will disappear 
Am F  
You're running fast, but you can run faster 
C E7 
Your wheels to the dirt, gonna make it clear 

F G Am 
I know it 'cause you wrote it down a hundred times 
D7 E7 Am 
But you say that you're doin' just fine 

F C  
Say there's something better 
G Am 
But today, there is a cold moon rising 
F C  
And you wanted something better 
G Am 
But tonight, you know you'll never find it 

F C G Am 
Say there's something better 
G Am 
But today, there is a cold moon rising 
F C  
You wanted something better 
D7 E7 
But tonight, tonight you're giving darkness 

Am C 
And you can't hear me 
E7 D 
I will try to draw you near me 
F G 
But in the morning, you will wake up alone 

Am C  
When your body breaks 
E7 D  
Even the hummingbirds will feel the earthquake 
F G                                     Am 
You'll sing a song of your heart's complaints 

C 
Sing it loud 
E7  
Sing it clear 
D  
Oh, sing so I can hear you 
F G                      Am 
Then sing it soft in my ear 

C  
Take it up 
E7 D  
Or take out, put me down 
F G                                  Am 
In the ground, I'll go anywhere with you 

F C  
Say there's something better 
G Am 
You don't see it, you won't find it 
F C  
Say there's something better 
G Am 
You're behind it but you won't get it 
F C G Am 
La da da, la da da 
F C G Am 
La da da, la da da 

F C  
Say there's something better 
G Am 
But today, there is a cold moon rising 
F C  
And you wanted something better 
G Am 
But tonight, you know you'll never find it 
F C G Am 
La da da, la da da 
F C G Am 
La da da, la da da 

F C 
Say there's something better 
G Am 
You don't see it, you won't find it 
F C 
Say there's something better 
D7 E7 
You're behind it but you won't get it 
F C G Am 
La da da, la da da
