Die Then Grow - Avett Brothers
VERSE 1
GCan you say your Cname to me, put mine after yGours?
GCan we build a hoCuse of glass without windows or Gdoors?
GWill you learn to Clove yourself the way I know you Gshould?
GCan we find the Ccourage there to call our friendship Ggood?
Call it Bmgood, call it gGood
CHORUS
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou
GDon't let romance and Cbeating hearts change what we came to Gdo
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou Em C
VERSE 2
GThe world is closing Cin on me, I think it's time I Ggo
GAnd with your sad young Ceyes you've taught me things I didn't Gknow
GAnd my heart broke down to Cpowder there and I wish I'd let it Gshow
GAnd I listened as you Csaid to me you'd rather die than Ggrow
Die than Bmgrow, die than Ggrow
CHORUS
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou
GDon't let romance and Cbeating hearts change what we came to Gdo
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou Em C
VERSE 3
GSo I watched as those who Cask for love, demanding some Grespect
GBecame the last in Cline to have what they come to Gexpect
GAs what nobody taCught them that they so rightly Gdeserve
GAnd the hums of their misCfortune peaked, the hardest lesson Glearned
Lesson Bmlearned, lesson Glearned
CHORUS
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou
GDon't let romance and Cbeating hearts change what we came to Gdo
GAnita, my AnCita, I was born to follow Gyou Em C
BRIDGE
ToG watch us fall is wChy they came
AndG fall we did, to the Emcall of the Chighway
GDon't go home, don't Clook ahead, don't loEmok behind
DEverything we were is Cdead
VERSE 4
GThen a well of hope and Ctalent sprang, and I caught a glimpse of Glight
GAnd I drank from there as the Ccolors rang out loudly from your Geyes
GAnita, my CAnita, I was born to follow Gyou
GDon't let romance or Cbeating hearts change what we came to Gdo
GAnita, my CAnita, I was born to follow Gyou (Repeat. Lose yourself in it!)
Die then Bmgrow, Die then Ggrow
Die then Bmgrow, Die then Ggrow
Like most Avett songs, this one is build around a basic chord progression,
but infused with subtle artistry. The chords are only the starting
framework. There are diminished C’s, etc. I welcome corrections.
I’ve been mooching here for years, and this is my first submission.
Enjoy!
