[Intro Verse] – single tone in background, can be played as D5
Sleeplessly embracing
Butterflies and needles line my seamed-up join
Encased in case I need it
In my stomach, for my heart, chain mail
Hunger of the pine
Hunger of the pine
[Verse 1]
D5
Sleeplessly embracing
F5 E5
Yawn yearn into me, plenty more tears in the sea
D5
And so you finally use it
F5 E5
Bedding with me you see at night, your heart wears knight armour

Hunger of the pine

Realization grew on me
G
As quickly as it takes your hand
Am G
To warm the cold side of the pillow

I'll hum the song the soldiers sing
Am G
As they march outside our window
