Chords for Passing Afternoon - Iron & Wine - With Lyrics

_ There are times that [D] walk from you
[E] _ [A] like some passing
_ [D] afternoon
_ _ [A] _ summer
_ [Abm] the open [D] window of
her honeymoon
[E] _
_ [D] And she chose a yard [Abm] to burn
[E] _ [A] But the ground [D] remembers her
_ _ [B] _ wooden [Abm] spoons
Her children stir [D] her _ [Gbm] _ bougainvillea [Abm] blooms
_ [D] There are things that drift [E] away
[Gb] _ [A] Like our endless number [D] days _
_ _ [A] _ Autumn blew [E] the quilt right off [D] the perfect bed [E] she made
_ [D] And she's chosen to [E] believe
_ [A] In the [Dbm] hymns her mother [D] sings _
_ _ [A] _ Sunday [E] calls his children from [D] their piles of fallen [E] leaves
_ [D] There are sailing ships [E] that pass
_ [A] All our bodies in [D] the grass
_ _ [A] _ Springtime [E] calls her children till [D] she
Let some go [E] at last
_ [D] And she's chosen where [E] to be
_ [A] Though she's lost her wedding [D] ring _
_ _ [A] Somewhere _ [E] near a misplaced genre
[D] _ _ _ [E] Bougainvillea seas _
_ [D] There are things we can't [E] recall _
_ [A] Blind as night finds [D] us all _
_ _ [A] Winter _ [E] tugs her children in [D] her fragile china [E] dolls
_ [D] But my hands remember [E] her _
_ [A] Rolling round the shaded [D] fern
_ _ [A] Naked _ [E] arms are secrets still [D] like songs I never [E] learned _
_ [D] There are names across the [E] sea _
_ [A] Only now I do [D] believe _
_ _ [A] _ Sometimes when [E] the windows close [D] she'll sit and think of [E] me _
_ [D] Wash them in this tighter [E] clothes _
_ [A] And they'll kiss as if they [D] know _
_ _ [A] Baby sleeps [E] in all our bones
[D] Scared to be [E] _
alone
