    Gm     Cm
All the windows are glowing
  Gm        Cm
The branches bending low

The skyline is swinging

Rocking back and forth
Gm        Cm
Walking down this dirt road
Gm       Cm
Watching at the sky

It's all I can do

It's all I can do

Gm  Cm
Gm  Cm  Cm  Cm  Cm

(same)
All the years keep rolling
The decades flying by
But ahh, the days are long

So here's one to the pigeons
The tugboats on the river
Here's one to you
For walking in my shoes, ahhh

Gm  Cm

Oh, you know I'd never leave you
No matter how hard I try
You know I'd never leave you
And that's just how it is

Ohhhh, everybody sees right through
Ohhhh, the static
That is, dear, everyone but you

Ohh, it's funny to think it through
Everybody... that is, dear, everyone but you
