   C     Em
So Apropos
Saw death on a sunny
  C
snow.

Chorus:
           F
For every life
           C
Forgo the parable
          F
Seek the light
              C
My knees are cold

Em
Running home, running home
                  F
Running home, running home

Go find another lover
To bring a
To string along

Chorus:
With all your lies
You're still very lovable
I toured the light
So many foreign roads

For Emma, forever ago
