( B  D  A )

B                    D
The hem of her dress spills over
A
What covers the seat
B                 D            A
N'flutters in the breeze like caterpillars on a leaf
B               D          A
Hair the hue of lions, beaches dried by morning suns
B                           D
Promise you will write me a poem
       A
Of who I am 'for sadness comes

B           D            A
Oh it comes in slow slow whispers
B                        D         A
When it comes feels like long long winters

( F#m  A )

B                          D
She placed her hand in the sun and
         A
With her shadow smoothed me down
B                   D
Turn your mind down low now
     A
Hold me close 'for madness comes

B            D            A
Oh it comes in slow slow whispers
B                        D         A
When it comes feels like long long winters

B             D          A
Let it come in slow slow whispers
B                 D             A
Let it come with its long long winters

( F#m  A )
