[Verse]
 
Bbm                         Fm
No, Medusa was not always a gorgon
Bbm                         Fm
No, my witch isn't always benevolent
Bbm                       Fm
She used me, an unwitting accomplice
Bbm              Fm
On her weapon my fingerprints
Bbm                   Fm
How does this happen?
                      Bbm
How does this happen?
                      Fm
How does this happen?
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Gb  Ebm               Ab
For twenty nine years
                            Gb
I've been searching for you
Ebm              Ab
Twenty nine years
                    Gb
You, a most elusive truth
      Ebm              Ab
These tattered bits of me
                   Gb
I've been piecing
    Ebm         Ab
For twenty nine years
 
 
[Interlude]
 
Bbm                   Fm
How does this happen?
                      Bbm
How does this happen?
                      Fm
How does this happen?
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Bbm                Fm
So then, Athena wanted revenge
Bbm                   Fm
She let Poseidon get away with it
Bbm                    Fm
Just like my own witch almost did
Bbm                          Fm
Rock tied, ready to drown my marriage
Bbm                   Fm
How does this happen?
                      Bbm
How does this happen?
                      Fm
How does this happen?
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
Gb  Ebm               Ab
For twenty nine years
                            Gb
I've been searching for you
Ebm              Ab
Twenty nine years
                    Gb
You, a most elusive truth
      Ebm              Ab
These tattered bits of me
                   Gb
I've been piecing
    Ebm         Ab    Bbm
For twenty nine years
 
 
[Bridge]
 
               Fm
(How does this happen?)
          Gb         Ebm
Walk with me in your bare feet
       Ab
In the sugar sand
        Gb
Time to diffuse
        Ebm
Bombs I planted
       Ab
In our bed
       Gb           Ebm
We can heal with forgiveness
       Ab
In the sugar sand my friend
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
Gb  Ebm               Ab
For twenty nine years
                            Gb
I've been searching for you
Ebm              Ab
Twenty nine years
                    Gb
You, a most elusive truth
      Ebm              Ab
These tattered bits of me
                   Gb
I've been piecing
    Ebm         Ab
For twenty nine years
Gb    Ebm    Ab
These victim tears
                    Gb
A song from my past
   Ebm         Ab
To twenty nine years
                        Gb
Yes, we are free at last
   Ebm       Ab
We can unleash
                       Gb
Ourselves from that mast
      Ebm          Ab
After twenty nine years
