Willow chords

[INTRO]
[G] [Em] [G] [G]

[Willow]
The poo[G]r girl sat alone under her[Em] Sycamore tree
The poo[G]r girl hand on her heart and
her[Em] head on her knee
And the [G]river washed by and her thoughts
Would lie
In the [Em]clouds over the sea
[G]Alone, awake, her mind would race [Em]into her
Dreams
And tea[G]r drops [Em]fall
[G]Down to the ground where the stones do lie
And the fish fly by they can hear her sigh
[Em]Breathe child breathe

[G]Unsure of what the [Em]balance held
The [G]girl grew up [Em]into herself
And [G]met the man she always[Em] dreamed to meet
And[G] he would kiss her [Em]endlessly
[G]Breathlessly she’d [Em]fall asleep
[G]In his arms beneath his [Em]tender wings

[Em]Breathe ch[G]ild breath[Em]e
[G]When the man had got his way, he disappeared
Without a trace
And the girl is left alone under her [Em]Sycamore tree
And [G]tear drops fa[Em]ll

[Willow & Emilia]
[G]Breathe child [Em]breathe
And the wind cried [G]Willow, Willow, Willow
Get your head up off the [Em]pillow, pillow, pillow
And the wind cried [G]Willow, Willow, Willow
Get your head up off the [Em]pillow, pillow, pillow
I[G] dreamed a dream and so it seems
that [Em]little girls have fantasies

[Willow]
I [G]dreamed a dream and so it seems
that [Em]little girls have fantasies

[Emilia]
[Em]Little girls have fanta[D]sies—
[Em]Look around, look around, look around
We’re [D]all the playthings of men in this town
[Em]Look around, what you’ll find, what you’ll see
Is that [D]men could care less bout your fantas[Em]y
Believe me -- deceiving, conn[D]iving, contriving
That light can be[Em] blinding
With [D]flowers in their hands
But [Em]pockets full of dust
Ain’t no [Em]trust in a man
With [D]flowers in their hands
But [Em]pockets full of dust
Ain’t no [Em]trust in a man

[Emilia] (Willow)
[Em]Why am I stuck in this lie
I should’ve known better than to
Trust his [G]eyes (my life spent in—hiding)
I should’ve known [Em]better should’ve (only to confide in)
Read the [G]signs (see I had him—no denying)
Cause all my[Em] life –I’ve been left (that this love’s worth dying)
[G]behind

I'm as [Em]foolish as I ever was
Thought this time was [G]different -- (I came here because)
Thought it would be [G]better cause (I believed in his love)
I thought the world had [Em]changed
It's the same as it ever was
Looking for a [G]better love -- (And I believed in the cause)
But you can't [Em]bet on love (But I've been acting so young
This g[G]irl's life is changed (If I can change)
And I am to [Em]blame (Show me the way)
How can I [Em]explain (A way to erase --)

These mistakes I've made (These mistakes I've made)
I wanted to [Em]love and be [G]loved (I wanted to love and be loved)
I wanted to [Em]love and be [G]loved (I wanted to love and be loved)
I wanted to [Em]love and be [G]loved (I wanted to love and be loved)
But instead I've come un[Em]done (But instead I've come undone)
I can be there for[Em] her -- (This is my time)
Like he isn't there for [G]me (To make it right)
But how do I tell [Em]her (It's all in me)
That she has been dece[G]ived? (It's all in me)
[Em]By me -- by me -- by m[G]e [Em] (It's all in me)

[Willow & Emilia]
And the wind cried [G]Willow, Willow, Willow
Get your head up off the [Em]pillow, pillow, pillow
And the wind cried [G]Willow, Willow, Willow
Get your head up off the [Em]pillow, pillow, pillow
I d[G]reamed a dream and so it seems
that [Em]little girls have fantasies

[Emilia]
I [G]dreamed a dream and so it seems
that l[Em]ittle girls have fantasie[G]s
