Oil And Lavender

	  		verse 1  
Am           D 
And being outside your wisdom 
G                   Em 
And stretching the truth 
Am         D 
I was the oil and lavender 
G              Em 
But never for you 
Am           D 
You had to toil and sit in 
G                     Em 
The sun browned your skin 
Am                 D 
It burned all the alabaster 
G                       Em 
Till the ask choked the wind 
  
Chorus 1  
Am                 D 
They say it's the longest light 
G             Em 
To ever have shown 
Am                  D 
They say it's the longest lie 
G                Em 
And that nobody knows 
Am                   D 
They say it's the longest lie 
G                      Em 
And I still taste the smoke 

  
verse 2  
Am            D 
Now only ungrateful remember (?) 
G                Em  
To sleep in the stone 
Am                 D 
With all of your grace and thunder 
G                 Em 
The roll and the boom 
Am          D 
I was the cloak and dagger 
G                Em 
That snuck into you 
Am               D 
And we have but one (left? /life?) finger 
G                  Em 
That's pointing at us 

Chorus 2  
Am                       D 
And that would be the longest night 
G                    Em 
That chilled ___ to bone 
Am                  D 
That would be the longest night 
G              Em 
To sleep here alone 
Am                  D 
That would be the longest night 
G                G/F#             Em 
I think you'd be warmer closer to me
