Tom: F
[Intro] C Em F C G
[Primeira Parte]
C
In our days we will live
Em
Like our ghosts will live
F C
Pitching glass at the cornfield crows
G
And folding clothes
[Segunda Parte]
C
Like stubborn boys across the road
Em
We'll keep everything
F C
Grandma's gun and the black bear claw
G
That took her dog
[Terceira Parte]
C
When sister Laurie says, "Amen"
Em
We won't hear anything
F C
The ten-car trains will take that word
G
That fledgling bird
[Quarta Parte]
C
And the fallen house across the way
Em
It'll keep everything
F C
The baby's breath. Our bravery wasted
G
and our shame
[Refrão]
F C
And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
F G
Both our tender bellies wound in baling wire
F C
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
F G
Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern
( C Em F C G )
[Quinta Parte]
C
In our days we will say
Em
What our ghosts will say
F C
We gave the world what it saw fit
G
And what'd we get?
[Sexta Parte]
C
Like stubborn boys with big green eyes
Em
We'll see everything
F C
In the tender shade of the autumn leaves
G
And the buzzard's wing
[Refrão]
F C
And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
F G
Both our tender bellies wound in baling wire
F C
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
F G
Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern
