[Bb] Toe in the line, I watched the host drink all the [Fm] wine, and now [C] she rambles through the
hoods and who [Dm] has not.
[Bb] The old man is a painter of tired [F] seascapes, titled [Bb] Adventures, so my [C] mind wanders, picking
at the table to cure [Dm] the wrong.
Like a [Bb] bird in a world of no trees, you were hung up [Fm] there in your disbelief.

[D] [Dm]
Love is in the [F] early mornings [Dm] and the shadows under [C] the trees.
