                E
Speak until the dust
               G#m
settles in the same specific place
                 B
Light refused to go
                F#
Drink it from a cast and iron plate
                C#m
instead of cold milk
              G#m
was offered unripe
            B
Instead of silence, considered craven

                E
Nothing made it seem
                 G#m
hidden where the ageing soil was pure
                      B
Pressed against the cheek
                  F#
Mountains become fragrant at the source
                 C#m
how can you stand it
       G#m
exotic angles
           B
I read it somewhere
                     F#
that they would lie still

Chorus:
               C#m
I remember how cloth hung
                 G#m
flexing with the forest clung
                B
Half waist and high raised arm
                 A
kicking at the slightest form
               E        C#m
I remember my first love
              G#m
I remember my first love

Unrelied, I was called,
missing teeth, out of favour
Nickel beach, it was all gathering by the sundial
I woke hard, I woke heavy
For the half way stop, five whole hours in
When I woke hard, I woke heavy
With the live or parts

Chorus:
And I remember how cloth hung
Flexing with the forest clung
Half waist and high raised arms
Kicking at the slightest form
I remember my first love
I remember my first love
I remember my first love
I remember how cloth hung
Flexing with the forest clung
Half waist and high raised arms
Kicking at the slightest form
I remember my first love
I remember my first love
I remember my first love
