Hoseas Wife Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

I just spoke siEm7lence with the seeker next to me

She had a heartAm9 with hesitant, halting speech

That turned to mEm7ine and asked belligerently, "What do I lAm9ive for?"

I see the sEm7cars of searches everywhere I go

From hearts to Am9wars to literature to radio

There's a quesEm7tion like a shame no one will show,

"What do I lAm9ive for?"

We are CHosea's wife

We are Dsquandering this life

Using Empeople like ladders and words like Aknives

Chorus

If we've eyes to Csee

If we've ears to Emhear

To find it in our Dhearts and mouths, the word that savesAm is near

Shed that shallow Cskin

Come and live Emagain

Leave all you were beDfore

To believe is to beAm9gin

Verse 2

There is a Em7truth in little corners of our lives

There are hiAm9nts of it in songs and childrens' eyes

It's faEm7miliar, like an ancient lullaby

What do I lAm9ive for?

We are CHosea's wife

We are Dsquandering this life

Using EmBodies like money and truth like Alies

Chorus

If we've eyes to Csee

If we've ears to Emhear

To find it in our Dhearts and mouths, the word that savesAm is near

Shed that shallow Cskin

Come and live Emagain

Leave all you were beDfore

To believe is to beAmgin

Bridge

We are more than dustEm

That meaCns something

That meansA something

AmWe are more than juEmst

blood and emCotions, inklings anAd notions,

atomsD on oceans B7

We are CHosea's wife

We are Dsquandering this life

Using Empeople like ladders and words like knivesA

Chorus

2X):

If we've eyes to Csee

If we've ears to Emhear

To find it in our Dhearts and mouths, the word that savesAm is near

Shed that shallow Cskin

Come and live Emagain

Leave all you were beDfore

To believe is to beAmgin

EmTo belDieve is to bCegin

EmTo belDieve is to bCegin

EmTo belDieve is to bCegin
