                  -Verse 1-
D                               Bm           
Got a quiver full of fire and a head full of rain
              G               D
And I've been clinging to the drifting air
                                      Bm
Been thinking about the color of the dawn of spring
        G                       D
and the smell of the wind blown hair
   A               Bm
My holding hand is empty
   G            D
My reservations few
     A                      Bm
Been looking everywhere for something
       G                      D
I been looking everywhere for you

            -Chorus-
D        Bm
OH my,  Oh my,
      G        D             A 
OH my heart it beats for the sight of you june
D       Bm
Oh my, Oh my,
            G             D
Well Im not long for this world and Ill
   A              D
be on my way home soon

                -Verse 2-
D                                Bm
Got a pocket full of light and a room full of shade
       G                     D
and im pitching in a violent sea
                                     Bm
been thinking about the color of the dawn of spring
        G                    D
and the sting of true love's blade
   A               Bm
my holding hand is empty 
   G            D
my reservations few
     A                      Bm
been looking everywhere for something
       G                       D
I been looking everywhere for you

            -Chorus-
D        Bm
OH my,  Oh my,
      G        D             A 
OH my heart it beats for the sight of you june
D       Bm
Oh my, Oh my,
            G             D
Well Im not long for this world and Ill
   A              D
be on my way home soon

              -Verse 3-
D                                Bm
Got a river full of ice and a bed full of waves
       G                     D
and im spinning like a rolling tide
                                     Bm
been thinking about all the ways the wind can turn
        G                    D
with the pushing pull of time
   A               Bm
my holding hand is empty
  G            D
my reservations few
     A                      Bm
been looking everywhere for something
      G                       D
i been looking everywhere for you

            -Chorus-
D        Bm
OH my,  Oh my,
      G        D             A 
OH my heart it beats for the sight of you june
D       Bm
Oh my, Oh my,
            G             D
Well Im not long for this world and Ill
   A              D
