Scarlet Teclado

	  E 
Dress me in scarlet 
                                       A 
Ribbons and bows so everyone knows I'm hiding a face 
                            1                        
That hadn't the grace to go free 
E 
Dress me in shadows 
                                           A 
Sad April skies have opened my eyes to the lie that I live 
                     E 
And given the river away 
B                              A               E 
I'll change these clothes if I want to, and I do 
 
G                   C              A                 E 
  I think that I've found out what no-one's about to tell me 
G                   C           A                  B    Am 
  I think that I've found out I don't wear scarlet well 
 
E 
Waiting before me 
                                           A 
Poets and painters may say, "When will you stumble our way 
                            E 
Kick off your red shoes and fly now" 
     B                        A               E 
I'll die for their words if I want to, and I do 
 
G                   C              A                 E 
  I think that I've found out what no-one's about to tell me 
G                   C           A                  B    Am  B  Am  B  Am  B  Am 
  I think that I've found out I don't wear scarlet well 
 
E 
Always before me 
                                       A 
Poets and sages may say, "We've been lamenting your fall 
                          E 
And carving it all into stone here 
    B                      A                E 
And skimming them into the river, just for you" 
 
G                   C              A                 E 
  I think that I've found out what no-one's about to tell me 
G                   C             A                  E 
  I think that I've found out the place where angels fell from 
G                   C           A                  B    Am  B  Am  B  Am  B  Am  B  Am  B  Am  B 
  I think that I've found out I don't wear scarlet well
