G+G       C9C9     E minor 7Em7  D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD
Daisies stand up on their tiptoes
G+G         C9C9    E minor 7Em7      D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD
And clouds stumble over themselves in the sky
G+G         C9C9     E minor 7Em7    D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD
And all the pretty horses come runnin' to her
G+G      C9C9     E minor 7Em7
And even the dust devils pray
   D MajorD    Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD  G+G C9C9 E minor 7Em7 D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD
That they'll catch her eye

Riff 1

I haunt her house from the outside
I watch her bake cornbread and talk on the phone
And the wireless on the inside plays a sad, sweet song
A augmentedA mute moonlit statue am I
She waltzes alone

Riff 1

Chorus:
  E minorEm  B minorBm  G+G        B minorBm
But baby, baby, I could call you baby
E minorEm          B minorBm           G+G      B minorBm
If I weren't so empty in the head and tied up in the tongue
  A minorAm  B minorBm  C majorC        B minorBm
And baby, baby, I could call you baby
C majorC      D MajorD
If I weren't so green and dumb

Riff 1 (x2)

The wind ain't stopped blowin' since mornin'
It's got me froze up on the inside
And I could get warm in the bunkhouse
Thaw out on coffee and bread
