Intro: C majorC A minorAm C majorC A minorAm C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
C majorC A minorAm
Saw an eagle on a pole
C majorC A minorAm
I think it was an eagle
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
Watched its shadow fly across the cement
C majorC A minorAm
I woke up in the snow
C majorC A minorAm
All the trees were crowds of people
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
No coat, no shoes, no idea where they went
A minorAm C majorC
I followed the fence line thin
A minorAm C majorC
Back where the yard begins
E MajorE G+G FF
My woman, she stood crying like a man
G+G FF
Said, "Where have you been
G+G
Where have you been?"
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
I thought you said that all of that was done
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
El cielo es azul
FF C majorC
Just don't go telling everyone
G+G
C majorC A minorAm
Thought the kettle was a train
C majorC A minorAm
Thought that Monday was a door frame
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
I tried so hard to finally settle down
C majorC A minorAm
Heard the fire pop and snap
C majorC A minorAm
Like a tack piano rag
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
I never could get used to happy sounds
A minorAm C majorC
But I hope the world's exposed
A minorAm C majorC
A augmentedA cruel and elaborate hoax
E MajorE G+G FF
That convinces me to walk without a cane
G+G FF
But what can you do
G+G
What can you do
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
I always heard that what is done is done
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
El cielo es azul
FF C majorC
Just don't go telling everyone
C majorC A minorAm
The past don't ever quit
C majorC A minorAm
There's boxes in the attic
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
Baby shoes and taxidermy dreams
C majorC A minorAm
While the ashes of the dead,
C majorC A minorAm
like a dandelion head
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
Explode and then are scattered by the breeze
A minorAm C majorC
And it's such a long way back
A minorAm C majorC
to all the fun I had
E MajorE G+G FF
When nothing ever seemed to bother me
G+G
But what can you do
FF G+G FF
Child, what can you do
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm FF
Sleep beneath the stars, and toil in the sun
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
El cielo es azul
FF C majorC
Just don't go telling everyone
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
El cielo es azul
FF C majorC
