intro
verse 1
Now the pale morning sings of forgotten things
She plays a tune for those who wish to overlook
The fact that they'd been blindly to see by those who preach and pray and teach
But she falls short and the night explodes with laughter
verse 1 continued
Don’t you come here and say I didn’t warn you
About the way your world can alter
And oh, how you try to command it all, still
Every single time it all shifts one way or another
chorus
And I’m a goddamn coward, but then again so are you
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar
As we evaded and hollering for you
C G D(STRUM ONLY ONCE) Em
And I never really knew, what to do
verse 2
Now I guess sometimes I wish you were a little more predictable
That I could read you just like a book
For now I can only guess what’s coming next
By examining your timid smile
Em G D(STRUM ONLY ONCE) Em
And the ways that the old, old wind, blowin’ you back around
chorus
And I’m a goddamn fool, but then again so are you
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar
Has me singing out and searching for you
C G D(STRUM ONLY ONCE) Em
And I never really knew, what to do
bridge
(NOT SURE ABOUT THIS PART)
Sometimes I wish I could find my rose mary hill
I sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I’d sing
And every once in a while I’d sing a song for you
That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea
C(STRUM ONLY ONCE) Em
And if I wanted it to, it would lead you back to me
chorus
(STRUM ONLY ONCE ALL)
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar
Is something that I have heard before
a children’s tale, the lonesome wail
of a liiiiion’s roar
the song came out a day or two ago :) i love, love, love first aid kit! sorry if some of
the lyrics are off, but i think this is sort of what it should sound like... thanks!
