Sound of Water/Change Your Mind Lyrics

Sound of Water/Change Your Mind - Sarah Slean
The Baroness (2008)
Just to hear the sound of water
Just to put the fire on ice
I'm lying down in the shower
Oh mercy, loosen the vice
Sometimes the sword is so heavy
and the pain has a ravenous mouth
In the pits of my own making
Sometimes I don't think I'll ever get out
All the world stroking their comas
and the madmen making the news
Bent over like a beggar
I was saying, "It's no use!"
This ain't the world for intelligent women
Unless you like swimming in your own dark sea
These are times for urgent rhymes
But where the poetry?
When the light
The light is hard to find
and you're walking blind
You only need to change your mind
Fm (notes are something like, Ab C Db D Db C (x3) - Db C Bb Ab G)
Your mind
Wide awake and hope-infected
I became the glittering queen
Every light in my direction
was a bright magnificent green
Adorned with invisible riches
I saw my stitches glowing so bright
No the burden was not heavy,
for the master it was light
When the light
The light is hard to find
and you're walking blind
You only need to change your mind
You only need to change your mind, your ...
(OK ... here's what I hear ... Fm with the keys C-F-Gb-G, Ab with the keys C-F-G-Ab, Cb
with the keys C-F-G-Ab, something like Ab, then Eb, repeat the first part - the Fm, Ab, Cb,
and then she pretty much builds on the C7 chord)
When the light
The light is hard to find
and you're walking, walking blind
The light
The light is hard to find
and you're walking blind
You only need to change your mind
You only need to change your mind
Fm (notes are something like, Ab C Db D Db C (x3) - Db C Bb Ab G)
Your mind
