Don't
E F#m
β« Verse 1:
E F#m
Long time coming to take my hand away
E F#m
She says nothing could take the pain away
E F#m
Something about discussions in the cave
E F#m
Something about a dream that can't be saved
β« Chorus:
B F#m E A
And all the easy faces running out of happy places
G G/F# E
Gone to the academy
B F#m E A
And plug each sonic lyre into the Navajo amplifier
G G/F# E F#m
For us to hear and see
β« Interlude:
E F#m
β« Verse 2:
E F#m
Little star went rolling up the hill
E F#m
Asked me to come and dance, I said, "I will"
E F#m
These are the days of preparation still
E F#m
Something is going to happen on that hill
β« Chorus:
B F#m E A
And all the easy faces running out of happy places
G G/F# E
Gone to the academy
B F#m E A
And plug each sonic lyre into the Navajo amplifier
G G/F# E
For us to hear and see
B F#m E A
And all the summoned graces manifest in different places
G G/F# E
There for us to see
B F#m E A
And little star keeps saying, "Indian was angel praying
G G/F# E
Calm and patiently
G G/F# E
For us also in wheat
G G/F# E
And save a place for me"
