Verse 1:
Em            D          C              Em
Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses
                 D         C           Em
Rainpools in the woodland, water to my knees
Am7        D              G              E     Em 
Shivering, quivering, the warm breath of spring
              D          C              Em
Pussiwillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses

Em           D           C         Em
Catbirds and cornfields, daydreams together
              D             C                 Em 
Riding on the roadside, the dust gets in your eyes
Am7        D                 G                 E    Em 
Revelling, dishevelling, the summer nights can bring
              D          C              Em
Pussiwillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses


Em               D              C          Em
Slanted rays and coloured days, stark blue horizons
                D           C         Em
Naked limbs and wheat bins, hazy afternoons
Am7      D              G            E    Em
Voicing, rejoicing, the wine cups do bring
              D          C              Em
Pussiwillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses


Em               D             C           Em
Harsh nights and candlelights, woodfires a-blazin
              D          C             Em
Soft lips and fingertips resting in my soul
Am7         D                G          E     Em
Treasuring, remembering, the promise of spring
              D          C              Em
Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses
