Tom: Dm
F D/F#
Behind the glass a leaf is falling
Gm7 C7
Carried by a gentle sigh
F D/F#
A dog is walked, a lawn is watered
Gm7 C7
But what am I? Forgotten
[Chorus 1]
Gm C7
A golden frame for an aching pain
F A
I'll swallow, in a quiet room
Dm G C A#m7
While outside the flowers bloom
F
As they would anyway
[Break]
A#m7 F x2

[Verse 2]
F D/F#
The sick are brave and extra loving
Gm7 C7
I'm none of that, I'm just sick and tired
F D/F#
The children play without a warning
Gm7 C7
The trees are yawning, but then it's quiet
[Chorus 2]
Gm7 C7
A pouring rain washes away
F Asus2 (high e string 5th fret)
Tomorrow and it's every word
Gm G C7
All its faces flaunt concern
Am
Cause what if it did?
Dm Dm7 Gm
And the storm persists for many years
C
And I'll spend my days
Gm A# A#m D
As though it would, anyways
[Bridge]

[Outro]
Dm G7 C
Sometimes I get choked...
Am Dm C Gm7
Counting my prayers in a holy sense of disarray
C
Cause I spend my days
Gm7 C F A#
Wishing things could ever change
C A# A#m F
As if they could, anyways
