Kelsey's Lament

Bm             G                 D               A
I pull another ribbon through my hair and wipe away a tear
And I reminisce of all those joyous times that you were always near
And since you both passed away, I've made myself move on
My chains of sorrow broken as I made myself move on
And thanks for your concern, but I'm perfectly fine
My life is becoming mine
And in that moment I see, see you standing there
It is then I must say

Bm     G          D
I want you to be free
                    A                       Bm
'Cause when you're trapped, I feel it's me
Your sadness burns me deep inside
So I won't cage you to my side
I want you to be free
'Cause when you're trapped, I feel it's me
Your sadness burns me deep inside
Just be free and feel alive

I'm captivated by the spell of your delight and peaceful eyes
But why am I surrounded by the shadows of this place tonight?
We're deep in this jungle now, I turn around, I turn around
The shock of my fate coming as I made myself turn 'round
And who, who are you? And where are you from?
Where has my tiger gone?
He smiles with his white grin
I am him
It is then I must say

I want you to be free
'Cause when you're trapped, I feel it's me
Your sadness burns me deep inside
So I won't cage you to my side
I want you to be free
'Cause when you're trapped, I feel it's me
Your sadness burns me deep inside
Just be free and feel alive
(Bm G D A Bm)

G              D                 A               Bm
When this was through, you went and stole my heart too
            G           D            A                 Bm
But I must let you get away and live your life without me
G                  D           A           Bm
I can't seem to go on without you in my arms
     G                  D
So badly I want you to stay
           A                            Bm
But my conscience still screams me to say

(G D A Bm) 2x

Bm      G           D
I want you to be free
                     A               Bm
'Cause when you're trapped, I feel it's me
               G              D
Your sadness burns me deep inside
            A              Bm
So I won't cage you to my side
I want you to be free
'Cause when you're trapped, I feel it's me
Your sadness burns me deep inside
Just be free and feel alive

Feel alive
Bm               G
I want you so badly
     D           A
I'm missing you sadly
           Bm                    G
And those cobalt eyes are all I see
