Passenger Golden Thread Lyrics

An attempt at the intro to Passenger's "Golden Thread".I quite liked
Bobatron1's chords (version 1 of the tabs) to this song, so I hope they don't
mind me posting their work for practicality; maybe people wanna play through
the whole song!
The intro is a bit of a stretch at first, but, with practice, can quickly be
learnt.
Capo: 7
Intro:
Verse 1:
Theres lights on in a window
And a signpost in the snow
Theres a golden coin beneath your pillow
Theres parachutes above you
And lifeboats below
And a heart that loves you
Yeah I think you know
Theres treasure maps well hidden
And diamonds in the dirt
Theres a golden thread weaved into your shirt
Theres a kiss for every tear
That rolls down your cheek
And words i shouldnt hear and words you shouldnt speak
So tell me one more lie my dear
Whisper softly so nobody hears
Keep me hanging on for another year
Oh tell me one more lie my dear
(same)
Well theres whiskey and blankets
And a bonfire when youre cold
Ill hold a golden breath till im silver and old
With only hope to keep alive
And only time to kill
Theres a fool that loved you and he loves you still
(same)
So tell me one more lie my dear
Whisper softly so nobody hears
Keep me hanging on for another year
Oh tell me one more lie my dear
Spin me one more tale sweet heart
Weave golden needle and thread through my heart
Whisper all the things you know i long to hear
Oh tell me one more lie my dear
