Bones Lyrics by Elizabeth Cook

Aftermath

2020

[Verse 1]
I wear your bones around my neck
I am the keeper of the flame
Yes, it's true, I've been a wreck
But I love you just the same
Tonight I'll play another show
I'll feel high then I'll feel low
Then I'll do a double-check
I wear your bones around my neck

[Verse 2]
Diggy Liggy La and Diggy Liggy Lo
Wonder if they're still a go
If they take the time to dance
A flash in the underpants
Can't hear the wind 'til it moves trees, uh
Here are our nominees
With their heart attack in tow
Diggy Liggy La, Diggy Liggy Lo

[Verse 3]
Let's take time to recognize
All the very best goodbyes
How they paved a solemn path
In their brutal aftermath
Listen for the rattlesnake
Hear that weeping willow ache
There's no slowing down the skies
Let’s take time to recognize

[Verse 4]
I wear your bones around my neck
I am the keeper of the flame
Yes, it's true I've been a wreck
But I love you just the same
Tonight I'll play another show
I'll talk on the radio
Then I'll do a double-check
I wear your bones around my neck
