Shed My Skin
by Blue Rodeo

C

Dm                          C
You've got troubles on your mind
Dm
Keeps you away from me
         C
There is no sense in denying
         Am                    C
And I've cursed myself for the longest time
      G                 F
Now I find I just don't mind


Leave your coat beside the door
Come and lay here
On this blanket on the floor
And we'll throw our candles
In the flames tonight
Set it right try to set it right


(chorus)
C                         F
When all our tears coming down are gone
     C                        F
I'll shed my skin before this evening's done
      G
If we never get the chance
             Am    F
To come back here again
          C                        G
I'll understand you know I'll understand
                   F
You know I'll understand


All the spirits of the night
Watch us sleeping here
Beside the firelight
And I'll hold my tongue
Till this moment's gone
Kiss the dawn
Stay to kiss the dawn

(chorus)
