[F] How nice it is to pick the wild [Dm] strawberries
[F] At [C] the grave of [F] Liza Jane
The day was dark, scarcely [Dm] a day at all
[C]
And I sat in the [F] slanted rain
[Bb]
[F] Voices filled the [Dm]
air
[F] [Gm]
[F] Though not [C] a single [F] soul [Dm] was there
On [F] Mount [C] Despair
The [F]
[Dm]
[F] [Gm] [C] [F]
sky collapsed with the weight of [Dm] scarlet clouds
[F]
[C] And [Am] so [C] my feet began [F] to run
Through wastes of fog to a long [Dm]
forgotten day
When [F]
[C] Liza Jane and I were [F]
young
[Bb]
[F] Lightning [C] filled [F] the [Dm]
air
[F] [Gm]
[F] As we [C] climbed the [F] winding [Dm]
stair
Up [F] Mount [C] Despair
[F]
When [Dm]
[F]
[Gm] [C] [Gm]
[F]
we reached the top
She dangled her legs over [Dm] the edge
[F]
[Gm] [C] And there was nothing we [F] couldn't see
The rainbow's arch, [Dm] army's on the march
[F]
[C] Of the realms of [F] eternity
Then [Bb]
[F] she left in the [Dm] air
And [F] [Gm]
[F] [C] I watched her [F]
[Dm] disappear
But [F] [Bb]
[C] I didn't [Dm] seem to care
[F] [Gm]
Like [C] a tree [Am] [Dm] shaking bare
On Mount [C] [F] Despair
How nice it is to pick the wild strawberries
At [C] the grave of Liza [F] Jane
