Now That I Know

Devendra Banhart - Now That I Know Tabbed by: http://www.andreasvockrodt.de [Intro] / / / / [Verse] Now that I know The way it goes You gotta pay back every penny that you owe Twelve years old In your mama’s clothes Shut the blinds and lock up every door And if you hear Someone’s comin near Just close your eyes and make them disappear now [Interlude] / / [Verse 2] Years away Finds me here today On my own always on my way now So I send my friends Gifts from where I’ve been Something for the hand they’re never there to lend Better keep those eyes Climbing paradise And don’t pretend you won’t reach it in the end now [Interlude] / / [Verse 3] Dearest dear I know you been here Why’d you run tell me why’d you disappear now That you’re not Here with me Seems to be the only time that I can see you clearly I may not know How to treat or give you what you need But I am a gentleman who says what he means now [Interlude] / / [Verse 4] And now I sing Upon my knees And praise the kindness of a gentle breeze I see it swell Like a story in me to tell Told years away and past my baby dying So you raise them up To heaven always hell they’re unaware share give a hand to help son Oh you give them away But they’ll come back to you someday Wanna know why nobody was ever there to help them And no it ain’t fair And if God forbid you care It’s enough to get you in a whole lotta trouble Oh realize It ain’t wise to idealize Or put your life in the hands of any struggle [Interlude] / / / / [Verse 5] Never renounce Or ever claim to be And never buy that freedom just ain’t free now Ella sang Sifting in the sand Like a hymn within to help us understand Heaven awaits We’re making our stand Glory bound and sparrow in our hand [Outro] / /
