G - 355433
C Am Em F (x2)
VERSE 1:
C Am Em F
Green-leaf dawn implies
C Am Em F
Something sweet in mind.
G F
But it’s still your fingers in my back pocket.
G F
Makes me wonder why I sit here so tall,
C Am Em F
And why I run from the walls.
C Am Em F (x1)
VERSE 2:
C Am Em F
Critters by the litter come gushing out my eyes,
C Am Em F
Like fears yet worth the fright.
C Am Em F
So, pour me a drink, and I’ll spill this dark ink.
C Am Em F
I’ll tell you it’s all for you,
BRIDGE:
G F
But it ain’t it’s just my way of coping
G F
With this bleary-eyed baby girl.
G F
Well, it’s just my way of coping
G F C
With this bleary-eyed baby girl, dying on my kitchen floor.
G O: (the solo varies from different live versions of this song, but this
should be close to the CD version of the song.)
