Intro: Fill Riff #1
(out of D, keep holding the two top strings while playing and let it all blend)
D A
Now the morning was gilded around the edges
G D
With the shavings from bone
D A
They were pressed in and glued in against the corner
G D
And carved just like soapstone
G A
And it was gloriously grey
G A
The sun was radiant underlay
D A
Fighting, fading, winning, waining
G D
Purring behind milk and cloud and snow
FILL RIFF #1
D A
Now the blinds are up a foot from the bottom
G D
I can make out outlines of ankles, legs and asses
FILL RIFF #2
D A
Until a fresh set sends blood to my ears
G D
And the memories flood the levy of my boredom
G A
And the finest sinewy strand has been cut clean trough
G A
There is a pop, a crack and a thud
D A
And you were free and i am free
G D
Now let's extricate ourselves from the mud
FILL RIFF #1
D A
You practised your name
G D
In the margin of pages
D A
Of a hundred thousand rough drafts
G D
I heard they roughed you up pretty bad
G A
You gotta climb up the mountain top, scream out loud
G A
Chip your teeth on a bottle top and do me proud
D A
When i held your hand in my blood free hands
G D
I swear they were the cleanest ones in town
G A
Take your time and let the tide
G A D
Pull you out to sea
G A
Take your time and let the tide
G A D
Pull you away from me
