[Intro]
G G/F# Em D
[Verse]
G
Well the witches stare with their limbs akimbo
G/F#
silhouettes of statues up in the window
Em
call me to come here with a crooked crescendo
D7
but I don't
[Pre-Chorus]
C D
Devotees dance among the fancy minds on the promenade
G G/F#
into a tabernacle on the lawn
Em
but I don't follow
[Chorus]
G G/F# Em D
Because she's mine, she's mine, she's mine, all mine
G G/F# Em D7
yeah she's mi__ne, mi__ne, mine, mmm
[Verse]
G
Midnight moved across the people's park
G/F#
and I fled the fire like a spinning spark
Em
up on to a porch in the dark
D7
she was waiting right there for me
[Pre-Chorus]
C
She knows that my hands are empty
D
as I go past the mothers of envy
G G/F# Em
and I don't have to fumble in the dark for my keys
[Chorus]
G G/F# Em D
I believe she's mine, she's mine, she's mine, all mine
G G/F# Em D7
Yeah she's mi__ne, mi__ne, mine, mmm
[Verse]
G
The pupils gather in the yard
G/F#
around the pulpit made of cards
Em
and waited for their leader's words
D7
but his words didn't make much sense
[Pre-Chorus]
C
His mouth spat out a fist of daggers
D
and his tongue swirled in a southern swagger
G G/F#
and I looked at all the people gathered
Em
but they were all in a trance
[Chorus]
G G/F# Em D
And she's mine, she's mine, she's mine, all mine
G G/F# Em D7
Yeah she's mi__ne, mi__ne, mine, mmm
[Bridge]
C
I was thrown before the court of canes
D
tossed my soul to the furnace flames
G G/F# Em
where all my heroes had been slain, exiled, or put in prison
C
Because they rose above the mess
D
and because their power posed a threat
G G/F#
and because they spoke of something else
Em
when everybody else didn't
[Verse]
G
the music fills the space between
G/F#
the deities and the prophecies
Em
of our bodies pressed endlessly
D7
silent in the sand
[Pre-Chorus]
C
she looks at me so fearlessly
D
and I take it all too seriously
G G/F#
but it all becomes so clear to me
Em
and makes me understand
[Chorus & Outro]
G G/F# Em D
That she's mine, she's mine, she's mine, all mine
G G/F# Em D7
Yeah she's mi__ne, mi__ne, mine, mmm
G G/F# Em D
Yeah she's mine, she's mine, she's mine, all mine
G G/F# Em D7
Yeah she's mi__ne, mi__ne, mine, mmm
G G/F# Em D
Yeah she's mine, she's mine, she's mine, all mine
G
Yeah she's mine

About artist:
He has toured extensively across the U.S. with his band (including drummer Randy Schwartz), supporting such musicians as John Mayer and guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriela. As of fall 2007, he is currently touring with Guster and singer-songwriters Meiko and Joshua James.
Dennen has been a part of The Mosaic Project, San Francisco Bay Area based nonprofit, since its inception. The Mosaic Project works towards a peaceful future by uniting young children of diverse backgrounds, providing them with essential skills to thrive in an increasingly diverse society, and empowering them to strive for peace. As The Mosaic Project's Resident Rock Star, Dennen created an original musical curriculum for the program, which they released as an album called Children's Songs for Peace and a Better World, in 2003. It won a Children's Music Web 2004 Award and a Parent's Choice 2004 Approved Award.
In November, 2007, Dennen was named as one of Rolling Stone Magazine's "10 Artists To Watch."[2]
In 2008, Entertainment Weekly named Dennen a "Guy on the Rise", one of 8 emerging singer-songwriters.[3] After a spring tour co-headlining with Mason Jennings and opening act, Missy Higgins, Brett will go into the studio to record his 3rd release. He'll head out on the road this summer with John Mayer and Colbie Caillat hitting festivals such as the Rothbury Music Festival in Michigan and the Mile High Music Festival in Colorado. [4]
