Intro: C,Em,F,C,G
Verse 1
In our [C]days we will live
Like our [Em]ghosts will live
Pitching [F]glass at the cornfield [C]crows
And folding [G]clothes
Verse 2
Like stubborn [C]boys across the road
We'll keep [Em]everything
Grandma's [F]gun and the black bear [C]claw
That took her [G]dog
Verse 3
When sister [C]Laurie says, "Amen"
We won't hear [Em]anything
The ten-car [F]trains will take that [C]word
That fledgling [G]bird
Verse 4
And the fallen [C]house across the way
It'll keep [Em]everything
The baby's [F]breath. Our bravery [C]wasted
and our [G]shame
Chorus
And we'll [F]undress beside the ashes of the [C]fire
Both our [F]tender bellies wound in baling [G]wire
All the [F]more a pair of underwater [C]pearls
Than the [F]oak tree and its resurrection [G]fern
Instrumental Break: C,Em,F,C,G
Verse 5
In our [C]days we will say
What our [Em]ghosts will say
We gave the [F]world what it saw [C]fit
And what'd we [G]get?
Verse 6
Like stubborn [C]boys with big green eyes
We'll see [Em]everything
In the tender [F]shade of the autumn [C]leaves
And the buzzard's [G]wing
Chorus
And we'll u[F]ndress beside the ashes of the f[C]ire
Both our [F]tender bellies wound in baling [G]wire
All the [F]more a pair of underwater [C]pearls
Than the [F]oak tree and its resurrection [G]fern
Enjoy!!
