Intro:
Am C D F
(whistling, no accompaniment)

Am

Verse 1:
Am          C
Here I hang from the apple tree
  D             F
Oh, take a little bite, take a bite for me
Am       Em
 The pain, it keeps me sane
  G        Am
For I am more than a taste

  Am             C
The taste in the mouths of the starving crowds
  D               F
Oh, pulling at the leaves, pulling off to me
  Am        Em
In  feet first the savage dust
   G           Am
Don’t leave me be, leave me be

Chorus 1:
Am    Em   Am
Leave me be, I’m tired
    Em7 G7  Am
I feel so damn cold
Am   Em   Am
Hold me like a child
       Em7 G7  Am
‘Cause I feel so damn old
   Em7 G7  Am
I got so damn old

Verse 2:
Am         C
Here I hang for the seated ground
  D             F
To look upon my eyes, look upon my mouth
Am         Em
 And say “we were there that day
 G          Am
I saw a face, heard a sound”

  Am          C
But now I sit where they used to be
 D            F
A quiet little scene on an apple tree
Am        Em
 White rooms and balanced fruit
  G          Am
The winter glowed on her leaves

Chorus 2:
Am   Em   Am
Hold me like a child
       Em7 G7  Am
‘Cause I feel so damn cold
Am   Em    Am
Bind me like I’m wild
       Em7 G7  Am
‘Cause I feel so damn old
   Em7 G7  Am
I got so damn old
      Em7 G7  Am
And I feel so damn old
   Em7 G7  Am
