She Offers Her Heart

from Elephants into Swans by The Sun Sawed in 1/2

about

This one dates from 2009 and my relationship with my wife, Amy. It was a glorious time for songwriting and celebration of the love of my life. Big, Beatlesque pomp, Penny Lane style with horns, lots of great harmonies by me, Ken Kase and Ken Rose (my brother).

lyrics

She Offers Her Heart

G Em C Cdrop A7
I feel funny words spin and beguile
As I sing up asleep I've known what I've known for awhile
She swirls her hair around my finger
Wraps it in my hand my heart's growing bigger
Than I ever planned
what you should understand.

G
She offers her heart
A
As emerald lovely as Oz
C Cm G
so now i'm in love now im in love with her
A riff to D
She offers me her heart

I feel funny words begin to spriral
Flow I go I've known what I know for awhile
She swirls her hair around her finger
Wraps it in my hand my heart's growing bigger
as we always planned, what don't you understand?

She offers her heart
All goey, glazed and tart.
so now i'm in love and now im in love with her
She offers me her heart
and now I'm in love and now I'm in love
and now I'm in love and now I'm in love
I always like to repeat that part
For she offers me her heart so beaty oh
Bm to F# to
Hang it up high, hang it up high, hang it up high where the lights go
Hang it up high, hang it up high, hang it up high as the fireflies
Hang it up high, hang it up high, hang it high where the moon glows
Bm Em C Am D Dim
Hang it up high, hang it up high, hang it up high
Hang it up high, hang it up high, hang it up high
wherever we are, we're always in love.

She offers her heart
All goey, glazed and tart.
so now i'm in love and now im in love with her
She offers me her heart
and now I'm in love and now I'm in love
and now I'm in love and now I'm in love
I always like to repeat that part
For she offers me her heart so beaty oh
