War Horse Chords & Lyrics - Jenny Owen Youngs

[INTRO]
[Em] [D] [A] [Em]

[VERSE 1]
The [Em]spirit / it moved me / it led me / to do these
[D]Things that I don't [A]know how to [Em]explain

[VERSE 2]
A [Em]feather / a chalice / an imperfect / balance
[D]Waiting to be [A]set against the [Em]grain
And I'll [D]never have to [A]go back home a[Em]gain

[CHORUS]
Take me a[G]way / I don't care where I [D]land
Better on a [Em]war horse than in someone else's [C]hands
Thought it was my [G]place / to watch the country [D]bleed
Don't know how [C]I became the [D]girl who they be[Em]lieved

[VERSE 3]
The [Em]saints knew / they told me / what to do / I only
[D]Listened well and [A]did the things they [Em]asked

[VERSE 4]
And [Em]time moved / as time does / a flame and / what once was
[D]Present quickly [A]moved into the [Em]past
And I'm [D]certain I was [A]never meant to [Em]last

[CHORUS]
Take me a[G]way / I don't care where I [D]land
Better on a [Em]war horse than in someone else's [C]hands
Thought it was my [G]place / to watch the country [D]bleed
Don't know how [C]I became the [D]girl who they be[Em]lieved
Don't know how [C]I became the [D]girl who they be[Em]lieved
