Stonecutters [Gb]
made [Abm] the [Gb] stones chosen specially [E] for you and I who live [Ab] inside.
The mountaineers gathered [Abm] [Gb] tender files high, in which to take [E] along, traveling many miles, knowing [Abm] they'd get here.
When they got here, all exhausted, on [Gb] the blue fleece, they got started, and [E] now when the rain comes, we can be [Ab] thankful.

[Gb]
When the [E] mountaineers saw that everything's there, they cried and [Dbm] so they [Abm] took off.
Thought we [Gb] were due for a change [E] or two [Abm] around this place.
When they [Gb] get back, they're all [E] mixed up with no one [Ab] to stay with.

[Dbm] A [Abm] fellow chance to be all one really needs.
[Gb] That's filled with hundreds and hundreds of chemicals.
And mostly [E] surround who you wish to be, but it's not like you, so listen to [Ab] me, listen to me.
[Abm]
And when the morning comes, we will step outside.
We [B] will not [Gb] find another man inside.
We like the [E] newness, the newness of all that has grown in our garden spoken [Abm] for so long.
Whenever I was a child, I wondered what if my name had [Gb] changed into something more productive like
Brasco, [E] been born in 1891, waiting with my [Abm] anthro's line.
Thought we were [Gb] due for a change or [E] two [Abm] around this place.
When they [Gb] get back, they're all [E] mixed up with no one [Ab] to stay with.

1891, they roamed around their [Gb] forest.
They made their house [E] from cedar.
They made their [Bbm] house from [Abm] stone.
Well, they're a [Dbm] little [Gb] like you.
And they're a little like [E] me.
We have all [Abm] we [Gb] [Abm] need.
[Ebm] [Abm]
Thought we were [Gb] due for a change [E] or two [Abm] around this place.
[Gb] This place.
[E] This place.
[B] [Abm] This place.
[Gb] [Abm] When [Gb] they get back, they're all [E] mixed [B] up with no one [Ab] to stay [Abm] with.
When they [Gb] get back, they're [B] all [E] mixed up with no [B] one to stay [Abm] with.
