Excavate Cifras

CAPO 3rd
 
[Chorus: Saint Claire]
 
Em
 
 G                  C                  Em
Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away
 G                 C             G                  Em
Crack my window, shed my shadow, excavate my pain
 
 
[Verse 1: Macklemore]
 
G
If I could read the world my notebook and these thoughts in it
C
Would they judge me or love me for what I've written?
Em                 G
Tryna get closer to spirit that enters the body
C
It's the vessel like I'm not in it
Em                         G
In fifty-something years, I won't be here
C
There'll be a kid with some headphones coverin' his ears
Em                         G
Walkin' 'round a hallway, dreamin' of ideas
C
Find himself in the sound 'cause music is a mirror
Em                     G
What you looking for? What you headed towards?
C
What's your name worth when they mention yours?
Em                    G
When you leave here, are you stepping forward?
C
Can you remember your intention when they question yours?
G
They're gonna question yours, they're gonna question yours
  C
I've been to rock bottom and I'm headed North
Em                                      G
If you don't love yourself, what's the respect for?
           C
If you don't love life, the check won't correct yours
 
Excavate
 
 
[Chorus: Saint Claire]
 
G                 C                  Em
Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away
G                 C               Em
Crack my window, shed my shadow, excavate my pain
G                    C
And I found peace
            Em
And I found peace
      G
And I found peace
 
 
[Verse 2: Macklemore]
 
G
I had this vision of my death
                      C
Surrounded by people I love and respect
                 Em
In the baby blue Cadillac hearse
G                    C
Pullin' me 'round the block that I rep
                  Em                    G
The greatest fear that I've ever kept
C
Is dying with regrets
                Em                   G
Like was I just alive for success?
                        C                                Em
Or did I leave a better life for the rest?
                  G
My greatest achievement isn't the dollars
C                                             Em
My greatest achievement isn't the followers
                  G
My greatest achievement isn't the accolades
C
My greatest achievement is my daughter
Em                        G
Wakin' up in the morning, bein' a father
C
Watchin' the light kiss her eyelids
Em          G
Hearin' her sing along to Chance
C
And bein' like, "Yeah, that's my kid"
G
The light started to glow
C
And the saxophone from Coltrane started to blow
Em                           G
Tender, laying in the snow, turn on my headphones
C
Couple miles to go before I run out of road
G
Excavate
 
 
[Chorus: Saint Claire]
G                  C                 Em
Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away
 G               C                Em
Crack my window, shed my shadow, excavate my pain
G                   C
And I found peace
            Em
And I found peace
      G           C
And I found peace
            Em
And i found peace
 
 
 
[Outro: Macklemore]
G                              C
Hold me up into the light and study every part of me
        Em               G                C
I'm an open book, no, I don't mind, but sometimes I'm hard to read
      Em                  G                     C
Just flesh and bone, I'm headed home, but this life is so hard to leave
     Em                  G                 C
But who am I when they cut the lights and nobody's watching me?
  G                             C
Hold me up into the light and study every part of me
         Em               G               C
I'm an open book, no, I don't mind, but sometimes I'm hard to read
       Em                  G                     C
Just flesh and bone, I'm headed home, but this life is so hard to leave
      Em                G                 C
But who am I when they cut the lights and nobody's watching me?
 G      C      Em
