Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb
She was shaking and talking louder and louder

Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Bb
each sentence was sifted to a very fine powder

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb
and her face was wet and tight, her grip was cold and light

Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Gm(III)

& she said "word up, sister, a strong wind

N.C.
could take me away"

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Bb x 2

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb
I said, "How long have you been at large?

Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Bb
they told me you were stashed last time I asked"

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb
and she said, "I've been out now for all of three hours

Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Gm(III)
I just resurfaced and here you are

 Fm
 I must admit that it has been hard so far"

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Bb x 2

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb
I said, "skeletons are fine, your closet or mine"

Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Bb
we took turns recounting the details of lost time

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb
and when we had both admitted it all

Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Gm(III)
we threw our heads back and we laughed until we cried

 Fm
 we laughed coz the world is absurd and beautiful and small

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Bb x 2

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb
and there we were washed up on the curb

Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Bb
as the rush hour traffic went out with the tide

Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab Bb
and I was aware that with every word

Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab Gm(III)
spoken and shared, I could see her shaking subside

 Fm
 I said, "sister, looks to me    like you're going to be fine"
