[F#m] I caught a string full of [E] fish down [C#m] by the dam.
[C#] [F#m] I drag them [B] back to the fields.

She's [E] a teacher I once [F#m] had.
[C#] A [F#] halo of honey wrapped [G#] all around [C#] her head.
[F#m] She always used [Bm] to give me some [E] when I wouldn't [A] care.

[F#m]
[Bm] My sleeves and then [Em] began to
[F#m] dry.
[A] Just as [C#] deep as the [A] days [D] are long.
[F#m] I sewed up [B] my wrists, sewed the [E] grime off [C#] my blood.
[F#m] Stained up my [B] clothes pretty good, [G#] and I turned that [G] dirt to mud.
[F#m] I could not [F#] help but close my eyes and lay my body [F#m] down.
