Beauty In The Bones

The Lockdown Sessions

Beauty in the Bones
Bruce Roberts / Jimmie Allen / Phil Bentley / Taylor Bird
duet with Jimmie Allen

             A				  E
There was a time when I was feeling incomplete
             F#m			 D
Lost in the shadow of the person I could be
            A				   E
Chasing perfection in every direction, so focused on the end
	          F#m                       D
I didn't see the journey and take in every step

F#m         D
Every long road
A		  E
Song that I half wrote
F#m            A       E
Brought me to where I am

A
Every root turns into branches
E
Every question leads to answers
F#m			      D
Even if the seed ain't fully grown
         E             A
There's beauty in the bones

Just a drop can start a riptide
E
Just a word can change a whole life
F#m			       D
Even if this story ain't been wrote
         E             F#m
There's beauty in the bones

In the bones

In the bones
D
In the bones

In the bones
A
In the bones

In the bones
E
In the bones

            F#m                                D
There was a light inside the darkness I could sense
            A                                 E
And when I found it, that's when beauty all began
             F#m                               D
Calm in the chaos, I'm not afraid of learning things my heart don't know
        A                               E
'Cause every new beginning starts with hope

Every long road
Song that I half wrote
Brought me to where I am


repeat chorus
                      F#m
There's beauty in the bones

In the bones

In the bones
D
In the bones

In the bones
A
In the bones

In the bones
E
In the bones
		       F#m
There's beauty in the bones


Like a half-drawn masterpiece
D
Like a half-played symphony
A
There's a beauty imperfect
E
In the journey and where it all leads to


repeat chorus

		       A
There's beauty in the bones
               E
Beauty in the bones
               F#m
Beauty in the bones
               D
Beauty in the bones
         E             A
There's beauty in the bones
