Ladder Song

This song was originally by ’Bright Eyes’ but was covered by Lorde for the ’Mockingjay: Part 1’ Soundtrack. Her version has slightly different words and chords to the original. Enjoy :) CAPO 2        No one knows where the ladder goes You’re gonna lose what you love the most. You’re not alone in anything You’re not unique in dying. I feel estranged every now and then Fall asleep reading science fiction. I wanna fly in your silver ship Let my mama hang and my sister sit. It’s on now the days are long now The ups and the sundowns and a twisting mind. If I gotta go first I’ll do it on my terms I’m tired of traitors always changing sides. They were friends of mine. Don’t hang around once the promise breaks Or you’ll be there when the next one’s made Kiss the feet of a charlatan Some imagine freedom. All the rest is predictable Trying your hardest to melt the snow Tie the knots to concentrate Keep on pulling that rope will break. We’ll welcome the new age Covered in warrior paint. Lights from the jungle to the sky See now the star burst Looks just like a blood orange. Don’t it just make you wanna cry Precious friend of mine?        Will I know when it’s finally done? This whole life’s a hallucination. You’re not alone in anything You’re not alone in trying to be.
