Animal Collective - Stride rite

^BM7Here once again I lie beside you, staring through your open heart ^C#mExplaining what I'm not Let's ^BM7invite all the songs that we wrote so we'd know And let them ^C#mgo

And she's ^BM7lying sideways, peering through the open blouse Discovering her ^C#mmother's dying heart And feels ^BM7safe in the arms she'd grown old just to know Then let them ^C#mgo

And this ^Ewinter's sorrow's ^F#hard I know But we've ^C#mbeen through worse and back, all in time ^C#mDon't hide behind, this love is wide Just take a stride, might еven have to ^BM7climb

^BM7Lost one to cancеr, two to sorrow, three by losing patience With the ^C#mpeople who we are Let us ^BM7tend what's not grown, nothing's wrong, let it go I know you ^C#mknow

Ride the ^BM7rise and fall of love's repeating answer To the quest of our ^C#mextraordinary lives Let us ^BM7find what we'd know in the fall of the old Then let it ^C#mgo

Ah, this ^Ewinter's sorrow's ^F#hard I know But you've ^C#mbeen through worse and back, all in time ^C#mDon't hide behind, this love is wide Just take a stride, might even have to ^BM7climb

Above the walls ^C#minside Look to teachings you'll find everywhere From your ^BM7lover's eyes To the loss that makes you ^C#mcry
