Tom: F
Intro: Bb F x 2
Bb F
In the failing light of the afternoon
Bb F
Lucy in the shade of the dogwood blooms
Bb F
Yesterday the solace of a poison fish
Bb C
Tomorrow I'll be kissing on her blood red lips
No one is the saviour they would like to be
The lovesong of the buzzard in the dogwood tree
With a train of horses laughing through the traffic line
And the cradle's unimaginative sense of time
Springtime and the promise of an open fist
A tattoo of a flower on a broken wrist
Lucy tells me jokingly to wipe her brow
With a pocket map to heaven and the sun goes down
