Leith Ross - Greiving

[Intro]
G
(x4)

[Verse 1]
G C G G
For grief is love run backward, a great movie in reverse
G C G G
And knowing how it ends can give another something birth.
G C G
Gives another something terrible, great roots inside the earth
G C D G
Too late after it’s gone is when we finally weigh its worth.

[Chorus]
D C G
Like how my mother says that funerals have the timing down all wrong.
G C D
You say so much to a person, only after they are gone.
D C G
But grief is love run backward so we love them better than
G C D
Yeah we love them with forgiveness, all because we know the end.

[Outro]
G C G
So I never will stop grieving, everything that’s yet to die.
G C D G
I think I love after I’m dead, and grieve while I’m alive.
