My Favorite Plum by Suzanne Vega

Intro:
Am E Dm Am

Verse:
Am          E
My favorite plum
Am       Dm       E
Hangs so far from me
F          E
See how it sleeps
Dm7             Dm6      E
And hear how it calls to me
C           Em
See how the flesh
Em
Presses the skin
Gm
It must be bursting
     Dm          E
With secrets within
F             E
I've seen the rest, yes
    Dm7         E       Am
And that is the one for me

Verse:
Am         E
See how it shines
Am      Dm    E
It will be so sweet
F            E
I've been so dry
Dm7              Dm6       E
It would make my heart complete
C
See how it lays
Em
Languid and slow
Gm
Never noticing
Em        E
Me here below
F             E
I've seen the best, yes
    Dm7         E       Am
And that is the one for me

Bridge:
Am      Am7
Maybe a girl will take it
Am7     Am6
Maybe a boy will steal it
Dm6     E7
Maybe a shake of the bough
     Am                  F   E
Will wake it and make it fall

Verse:
    Am          E
But my favorite plum
Am      Dm       E
Lies in wait for me
F             E
I'll be right here
Dm7     Dm6    E
Longing endlessly
C
You'll say that I'm
Em
Foolish to trust
    Gm
But it will be mine
      Dm           E
And I know that it must
      F            E
Cause I've had the rest, yes
    Dm7         E       Am
And that is the one for me
Dm7           E
I've had the best, yes
    F           E7      Am
And that is the one for me

Outro:
Am E Dm Am
