house For [C] matches, matches
here for weeks Yeah, I've got the courage
And there's a [F] warm wind blowing
All [G] through the mountains in [C] the east Can you feel the breeze?
Maybe [Am] we [C] should just [G] let [Dm] go [Am] Sell what's left of [C] us up [G] in smoke
I wish I smoked cigarettes Then I'd have a reason to keep some by my

And there's a [F] warm wind blowing
All [G] through the mountains in [C] the east Can you feel the breeze?
