Where the Gearth shows_ its bones_ of C6/Gwind_-bro_-ken sto-one and the D9/F#sea_ and the sky are D9/F#o-ne_
I'm Amcaught out of time_ Dmy bClood sings_ with wine_ and I'm rD9/F#unning naked in-in the sD9/F# _ C _un__
There's GGod in the trees_ I'm C6/Gweak_ in the knees-es_ and the D9/F#sky_ is a painful D9/F#blue-ue_
I'd Amlike to look around_ Dbut Choney_ all D9/F#I_ see is you__

And I'm_ Amsitting with friends_ Dwhere Cforty-five cents_ will D9/F#buy another glass of D9/F# _ C _beer__
He's got Gsomething to say_ but I'm C6/Gso_ far_ away-ay_ that I D9/F#don't know who I'm talking D9/F#to_-o__

You say_ you've Cbeen twice_ a wife_ and Gyou're_ through_ with life_
Ah'but hoAmney_ what the Am/Ghell_ is it fo-D9/F#or_

That I Amwant to see your Am/Gsmiling face_ D9/F#forty-five years_ from now__
