Tuning: Standard, Capo 2nd
This is a correction of a tab I found here. I felt like the Em didn't do the job
for the harmonics.
[Verse 1]
C D G C
There are times that walk from you like some passing afternoon
G D C D
Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon
C D G C
And she chose a yard to burn, but the ground remembers her
G D C D
Wooden spoons, her children stir her bougainvillea blooms
[Verse 2]
C D G C
There are things that drift away like our endless, numbered days
G D C D
Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made
C D G C
And she's chosen to believe in the hymns her mother sings
G D C D
Sunday pulls its children from their piles of fallen leaves
[Verse 3]
C D G C
There are sailing ships that pass all our bodies in the grass
G D C D
Springtime calls her children 'till she lets them go at last
C D G C
And she's chosen where to be, though she's lost her wedding ring
G D C D
Somewhere near her misplaced jar of bougainvillea seeds
[Verse 4]
C D G C
There are things we can't recall, blind as night that finds us all
G D C D
Winter tucks her children in, her fragile china dolls
C D G C
But my hands remember hers, rolling 'round the shaded ferns
G D C D
Naked arms, her secrets still like songs I'd never learned
[Verse 5]
C D G C
There are names across the sea, only now I do believe
G D C D
Sometimes, with the windows closed, she'll sit and think of me
C D G C
But she'll mend his tattered clothes and they'll kiss as if they know
G D C D
A baby sleeps in all our bones, so scared to be alone
