Intro: D  Asus4 A  Em/G Em/A  G  x2

D               Asus4      A
the garter snake passed lazily through the tall yellow-headed sourgrass
Em/G      Em/A       G
there was cold, clear water in a tall, clean glass
D                 Asus4         A
the sunlight hit the sides and it came through the water tilted
Em/G
i saw the condensation on your hand
G
i could feel the glaciers melting

D          A
and a warm, soft wind
D          G
covered up everything
D             A         D
on the day your love came screaming through me

D              Asus4     A
you had oranges and lemons in a canvas bag beside you
Em/G         Em/A     G
and seven different kinds of light welling up inside of you
D                  Asus4
you smeared citrus pulp all over me, it felt okay
Em/G     Em/A       G
good old east rutherford three thousand miles away

D               A
i felt the warm surge blast my mind
D        G
coming in from behind
D             A         D
on the day your love came screaming through me

Break: D  Asus4 A  Em/G Em/A  G  x2

D           A
in the fresh light of day
D            G
i felt something falling away
D             A        D
on the day your love came screaming through me
