[D] This is the song [G] for .
[Bm] them.
[G] [D] .
And at the back [G] of what we've done [B] is the [G] .
view.
[D] Well I wish we could [G] take a look [B] at his [G] adornment.
[D] .
Yes I wish we could [G] take every pain .
[B] [Bm] to close [G] the [D] door on him .
Do you remember staring [G].
up at so [B] far away [G] .
in that blue [D]-blue car .
We heard the rushing [G] slow of the [Bm] dark water [G] and the engine .
[D] And I said how about the [G] .
[Bm] time [G] before what [D] we've .
Well you keep an eye [G] on .
[Bm] .
[G] to see how many the same [D] mistake .
When [C#] it [B] was dark I called and [D] you came .
When it [B] was dark I saw [E] [D] shapes .
When the [E] sea stopped in your [Bm] .
[D] head.
[Bm] In the sea stopped [E] the river.
[D] .
[G] .
[D] Well mercy me [G] I'll be gone in fifteen .
Since I [D] last saw you .
I have never [G] known the pain.
It's been a long time.
How are [D] you?.
Your eyes are green [G] Your hair.
[Bm] [G] Your eyes are [D] blue .
I close the range and I [G] don't .
[B] close [G] the darkened door on you.
[D] We take [Bm] a [B] walk along [Bm] a [F#m] dirty [D] lane .
Hear the [Bm] goose's nay.
[E] I [Bm] hear [E] the [D] rooster's call.
[Bm] Oh little [E] .
cow, go on your [D] way .
Oh little baby, [Bm] .
fly [E] [Bm] .
over [D] my way.
There is [Bm] a blacksmith and there is a shepherd and there is a butcher boy.
And there is a barber [D] who's cutting and cutting away at my only joy.
I saw a [Bm] rabbit and a snake and a knight and a snake and a candlestick.
And I [D] had thought it'd be harder to do but I thought I would see her quick.
Now the [Bm] day is kicking and rolling and rolling and rolling and sun and blue.
Oh wherever you [D] go, did a wonderful thing.
I will find you in the [Bm] shivering as they lie to [D] you .
Be [Bm] peace [B] baby .
[C#] [D] .
[C#m] [B] .
