[Verse]
C
Oh the birds are ringing in
G5
The opening act of spring
Em Am C D/F# G5
And I have fallen down and I'm so much worse than I have ever been
C
Oh the season's acting strange
G5
And I know that something has to change
Em Am C D/F# G5
But there is no path I can choose that will not bring somebody pain
[Chorus]
D D/F# G5
O-------h oh oh oh
Am G5 D
Please forgive me for the things that I must do

[Verse]
C
Oh the clouds have gathered thick
G5
And in my stomach I feel sick
Em Am C D/F# G5
And I have all this drive and no idea what I should do with it
C
But they say there is a calm
G5
After the passing of the storm
Em Am C D/F# G5
So I can dream of going back outside when the rain and thunder's done
[Chorus]
D D/F# G5
O-------h oh oh oh
Am G5 D
Please forgive me for the things that I must do

[Bridge]
D/F#
I know the old folks say
Am
They can tell which way the river's flowing
C
Tell which way the wind is blowing
G
Watching careful for the
Am
Signs among the little thing
G
The barking dogs, the birds on wing
D/F#
I am deaf and blind
Am
And I can't say if I can change
C
Patterns that have caused you pain
G
Well, I was raised in subrubs
Am
Sheltered from the sun and rain
C INTRO RIFF
Far away from subtle season's change
C G5

[Verse]
G5 C
Oh baby I will read
G5
About the buzzing of the bees
Em Am C D/F# G5
About the grass and snakes and spawning lakes and the different types of tress
G5 C
And I will find a way
G5
That leads from cruel April into May
Em Am C D/F# G5
And someday soon it will be June and you'll decide to stay
[Chorus]
D D/F# G5
O-------h oh oh oh
Am G5 D
Please forgive me for the things that I have done
D D/F# G5
O-------h oh oh oh
Am G5 D
I will carry your umbrella in the summer
INTRO RIFF
And I'll shade you from the sun
